Lets's calculate LCM of 574,8845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5077030
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5077030
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5268/574,3640/8845 is 4/5077030
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 574,8845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(574,8845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(574,8845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(574,8845) = ( 574 × 8845 ) / 1
LCM(574,8845) = 5077030 / 1
LCM(574,8845) = 5077030
