Lets's calculate LCM of 601,878
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 527678
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/527678
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4552/601,5969/878 is 1/527678
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 601,878 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,878) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(601,878) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(601,878) = ( 601 × 878 ) / 1
LCM(601,878) = 527678 / 1
LCM(601,878) = 527678
