Lets's calculate LCM of 601,1222
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 734422
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 157/734422
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2669/601,5966/1222 is 157/734422
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 601,1222 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,1222) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(601,1222) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(601,1222) = ( 601 × 1222 ) / 1
LCM(601,1222) = 734422 / 1
LCM(601,1222) = 734422
