Lets's calculate LCM of 449,5573
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2502277
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2502277
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 155/449,7237/5573 is 1/2502277
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 449,5573 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(449,5573) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(449,5573) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(449,5573) = ( 449 × 5573 ) / 1
LCM(449,5573) = 2502277 / 1
LCM(449,5573) = 2502277
