Lets's calculate LCM of 678,5581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3783918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3783918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1382/678,1186/5581 is 2/3783918
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 678,5581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,5581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,5581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(678,5581) = ( 678 × 5581 ) / 1
LCM(678,5581) = 3783918 / 1
LCM(678,5581) = 3783918
