Lets's calculate LCM of 569,3147
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1790643
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1790643
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1548/569,5901/3147 is 3/1790643
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 569,3147 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(569,3147) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(569,3147) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(569,3147) = ( 569 × 3147 ) / 1
LCM(569,3147) = 1790643 / 1
LCM(569,3147) = 1790643
