Lets's calculate LCM of 177,5698
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1008546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1008546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2985/177,6643/5698 is 1/1008546
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 177,5698 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(177,5698) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(177,5698) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(177,5698) = ( 177 × 5698 ) / 1
LCM(177,5698) = 1008546 / 1
LCM(177,5698) = 1008546
