Lets's calculate LCM of 607,5485
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3329395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3329395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/607,6788/5485 is 4/3329395
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 607,5485 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(607,5485) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(607,5485) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(607,5485) = ( 607 × 5485 ) / 1
LCM(607,5485) = 3329395 / 1
LCM(607,5485) = 3329395
