Lets's calculate LCM of 575,2992
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1720400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1720400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2048/575,1526/2992 is 2/1720400
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 575,2992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(575,2992) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(575,2992) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(575,2992) = ( 575 × 2992 ) / 1
LCM(575,2992) = 1720400 / 1
LCM(575,2992) = 1720400
