Lets's calculate LCM of 471,3595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1693245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/1693245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6945/471,2115/3595 is 15/1693245
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 471,3595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,3595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,3595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(471,3595) = ( 471 × 3595 ) / 1
LCM(471,3595) = 1693245 / 1
LCM(471,3595) = 1693245
