Lets's calculate LCM of 563,2257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1270691
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1270691
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1704/563,3663/2257 is 3/1270691
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 563,2257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(563,2257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(563,2257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(563,2257) = ( 563 × 2257 ) / 1
LCM(563,2257) = 1270691 / 1
LCM(563,2257) = 1270691
