So the greatest common factor 3579,5226 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 662,2825
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1870150
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1870150
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3579/662,5226/2825 is 3/1870150
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 662,2825 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(662,2825) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(662,2825) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(662,2825) = ( 662 × 2825 ) / 1
LCM(662,2825) = 1870150 / 1
LCM(662,2825) = 1870150
