Lets's calculate LCM of 831,6188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5142228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5142228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 550/831,9778/6188 is 2/5142228
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 831,6188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(831,6188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(831,6188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(831,6188) = ( 831 × 6188 ) / 1
LCM(831,6188) = 5142228 / 1
LCM(831,6188) = 5142228
