Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1121828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3556/436,7791/2573 is 7/1121828
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 436,2573 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(436,2573) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(436,2573) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(436,2573) = ( 436 × 2573 ) / 1
LCM(436,2573) = 1121828 / 1
LCM(436,2573) = 1121828
