Lets's calculate LCM of 581,659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 382879
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/382879
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3505/581,6950/659 is 5/382879
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 581,659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(581,659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(581,659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(581,659) = ( 581 × 659 ) / 1
LCM(581,659) = 382879 / 1
LCM(581,659) = 382879
