Lets's calculate LCM of 37,593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21941
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/21941
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5545/37,9770/593 is 5/21941
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 37,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,593) = ( 37 × 593 ) / 1
LCM(37,593) = 21941 / 1
LCM(37,593) = 21941
