Lets's calculate LCM of 678,575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 389850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/389850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 473/678,836/575 is 11/389850
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 678,575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(678,575) = ( 678 × 575 ) / 1
LCM(678,575) = 389850 / 1
LCM(678,575) = 389850
