Lets's calculate LCM of 566,5487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3105642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3105642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5548/566,4158/5487 is 2/3105642
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 566,5487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(566,5487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(566,5487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(566,5487) = ( 566 × 5487 ) / 1
LCM(566,5487) = 3105642 / 1
LCM(566,5487) = 3105642
