Lets's calculate LCM of 855,3601
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3078855
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3078855
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2597/855,5666/3601 is 1/3078855
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 855,3601 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(855,3601) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(855,3601) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(855,3601) = ( 855 × 3601 ) / 1
LCM(855,3601) = 3078855 / 1
LCM(855,3601) = 3078855
