Lets's calculate LCM of 665,544
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 361760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/361760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 456/665,4162/544 is 2/361760
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 665,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(665,544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(665,544) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(665,544) = ( 665 × 544 ) / 1
LCM(665,544) = 361760 / 1
LCM(665,544) = 361760
