Lets's calculate LCM of 502,875
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 439250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/439250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2587/502,3123/875 is 1/439250
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 502,875 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,875) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,875) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(502,875) = ( 502 × 875 ) / 1
LCM(502,875) = 439250 / 1
LCM(502,875) = 439250
