So the greatest common factor 1899,2212 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 948,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 528036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/528036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1899/948,2212/557 is 1/528036
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 948,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(948,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(948,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(948,557) = ( 948 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(948,557) = 528036 / 1
LCM(948,557) = 528036
