Lets's calculate LCM of 286,4227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1208922
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1208922
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3774/286,5860/4227 is 2/1208922
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 286,4227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(286,4227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(286,4227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(286,4227) = ( 286 × 4227 ) / 1
LCM(286,4227) = 1208922 / 1
LCM(286,4227) = 1208922
