Lets's calculate LCM of 573,859
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 492207
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/492207
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5174/573,7548/859 is 2/492207
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 573,859 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(573,859) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(573,859) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(573,859) = ( 573 × 859 ) / 1
LCM(573,859) = 492207 / 1
LCM(573,859) = 492207
