Lets's calculate LCM of 557,644
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 358708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/358708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2397/557,1393/644 is 1/358708
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 557,644 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,644) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,644) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,644) = ( 557 × 644 ) / 1
LCM(557,644) = 358708 / 1
LCM(557,644) = 358708
