Lets's calculate LCM of 633,871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 551343
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/551343
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5241/633,3676/871 is 1/551343
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 633,871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(633,871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(633,871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(633,871) = ( 633 × 871 ) / 1
LCM(633,871) = 551343 / 1
LCM(633,871) = 551343
