Lets's calculate LCM of 571,1224
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 698904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/698904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2778/571,3696/1224 is 6/698904
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 571,1224 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,1224) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,1224) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,1224) = ( 571 × 1224 ) / 1
LCM(571,1224) = 698904 / 1
LCM(571,1224) = 698904
