Lets's calculate LCM of 899,1918
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1724282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1724282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 555/899,7862/1918 is 1/1724282
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 899,1918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,1918) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,1918) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,1918) = ( 899 × 1918 ) / 1
LCM(899,1918) = 1724282 / 1
LCM(899,1918) = 1724282
