Lets's calculate LCM of 643,860
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 552980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/552980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4540/643,6174/860 is 2/552980
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 643,860 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,860) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,860) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,860) = ( 643 × 860 ) / 1
LCM(643,860) = 552980 / 1
LCM(643,860) = 552980
