Lets's calculate LCM of 549,5569
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3057381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3057381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3517/549,4256/5569 is 1/3057381
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 549,5569 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(549,5569) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(549,5569) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(549,5569) = ( 549 × 5569 ) / 1
LCM(549,5569) = 3057381 / 1
LCM(549,5569) = 3057381
