Lets's calculate LCM of 551,9872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5439472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/5439472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2605/551,9900/9872 is 5/5439472
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 551,9872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,9872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,9872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,9872) = ( 551 × 9872 ) / 1
LCM(551,9872) = 5439472 / 1
LCM(551,9872) = 5439472
