Lets's calculate LCM of 303,5822
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1764066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1764066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5140/303,5606/5822 is 2/1764066
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 303,5822 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,5822) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(303,5822) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(303,5822) = ( 303 × 5822 ) / 1
LCM(303,5822) = 1764066 / 1
LCM(303,5822) = 1764066
