Lets's calculate LCM of 583,5505
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3209415
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3209415
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5518/583,3609/5505 is 1/3209415
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 583,5505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(583,5505) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(583,5505) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(583,5505) = ( 583 × 5505 ) / 1
LCM(583,5505) = 3209415 / 1
LCM(583,5505) = 3209415
