Lets's calculate LCM of 945,562
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 531090
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/531090
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1559/945,8838/562 is 1/531090
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 945,562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(945,562) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(945,562) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(945,562) = ( 945 × 562 ) / 1
LCM(945,562) = 531090 / 1
LCM(945,562) = 531090
