Lets's calculate LCM of 541,8859
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4792719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4792719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4012/541,1426/8859 is 2/4792719
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 541,8859 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,8859) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,8859) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,8859) = ( 541 × 8859 ) / 1
LCM(541,8859) = 4792719 / 1
LCM(541,8859) = 4792719
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
