Lets's calculate LCM of 674,809
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 545266
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/545266
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5516/674,2948/809 is 4/545266
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 674,809 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(674,809) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(674,809) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(674,809) = ( 674 × 809 ) / 1
LCM(674,809) = 545266 / 1
LCM(674,809) = 545266
