Lets's calculate LCM of 35,421

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14735

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/14735

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3168/35,8466/421 is 6/14735

Least Common Multiple of 35,421 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 35,421 with GCF Formula

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 35,421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(35,421) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(35,421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(35,421) = ( 35 × 421 ) / 1

LCM(35,421) = 14735 / 1

LCM(35,421) = 14735
