Lets's calculate LCM of 853,7617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6497301
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/6497301
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5530/853,3262/7617 is 14/6497301
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 853,7617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,7617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,7617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,7617) = ( 853 × 7617 ) / 1
LCM(853,7617) = 6497301 / 1
LCM(853,7617) = 6497301
