Lets's calculate LCM of 527,4259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2244493
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2244493
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5543/527,6239/4259 is 1/2244493
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 527,4259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(527,4259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(527,4259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(527,4259) = ( 527 × 4259 ) / 1
LCM(527,4259) = 2244493 / 1
LCM(527,4259) = 2244493
