So the greatest common factor 4072,2920 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 897,4325
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3879525
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/3879525
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4072/897,2920/4325 is 8/3879525
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 897,4325 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,4325) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,4325) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,4325) = ( 897 × 4325 ) / 1
LCM(897,4325) = 3879525 / 1
LCM(897,4325) = 3879525
