So the greatest common factor 1581,5532 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 563,848
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 477424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/477424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1581/563,5532/848 is 3/477424
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 563,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(563,848) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(563,848) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(563,848) = ( 563 × 848 ) / 1
LCM(563,848) = 477424 / 1
LCM(563,848) = 477424
