Lets's calculate LCM of 853,677
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 577481
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/577481
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 526/853,7408/677 is 2/577481
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 853,677 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,677) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,677) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,677) = ( 853 × 677 ) / 1
LCM(853,677) = 577481 / 1
LCM(853,677) = 577481
