Lets's calculate LCM of 989,5324
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5265436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5265436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5571/989,2247/5324 is 3/5265436
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 989,5324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,5324) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,5324) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,5324) = ( 989 × 5324 ) / 1
LCM(989,5324) = 5265436 / 1
LCM(989,5324) = 5265436
