Lets's calculate LCM of 204,5557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1133628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1133628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2944/204,8635/5557 is 1/1133628
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 204,5557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,5557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,5557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(204,5557) = ( 204 × 5557 ) / 1
LCM(204,5557) = 1133628 / 1
LCM(204,5557) = 1133628
