So the greatest common factor 3152,4250 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 869,1439
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1250491
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1250491
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3152/869,4250/1439 is 2/1250491
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 869,1439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(869,1439) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(869,1439) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(869,1439) = ( 869 × 1439 ) / 1
LCM(869,1439) = 1250491 / 1
LCM(869,1439) = 1250491
