Lets's calculate LCM of 532,5585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2971220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2971220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2334/532,7112/5585 is 2/2971220
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 532,5585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,5585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,5585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(532,5585) = ( 532 × 5585 ) / 1
LCM(532,5585) = 2971220 / 1
LCM(532,5585) = 2971220
