Lets's calculate LCM of 705,1159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 817095
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/817095
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4550/705,1842/1159 is 2/817095
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 705,1159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(705,1159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(705,1159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(705,1159) = ( 705 × 1159 ) / 1
LCM(705,1159) = 817095 / 1
LCM(705,1159) = 817095
