Lets's calculate LCM of 558,221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 123318
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/123318
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4526/558,7317/221 is 1/123318
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 558,221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(558,221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(558,221) = ( 558 × 221 ) / 1
LCM(558,221) = 123318 / 1
LCM(558,221) = 123318
