Lets's calculate LCM of 557,849
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 472893
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/472893
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1116/557,1882/849 is 2/472893
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 557,849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,849) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,849) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,849) = ( 557 × 849 ) / 1
LCM(557,849) = 472893 / 1
LCM(557,849) = 472893
