Lets's calculate LCM of 901,8592
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7741392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7741392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5562/901,4125/8592 is 3/7741392
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 901,8592 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,8592) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,8592) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,8592) = ( 901 × 8592 ) / 1
LCM(901,8592) = 7741392 / 1
LCM(901,8592) = 7741392
