Lets's calculate LCM of 986,559
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 551174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/551174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2245/986,8680/559 is 5/551174
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 986,559 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,559) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,559) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,559) = ( 986 × 559 ) / 1
LCM(986,559) = 551174 / 1
LCM(986,559) = 551174
