Lets's calculate LCM of 862,585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 504270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/504270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5578/862,2175/585 is 1/504270
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 862,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,585) = ( 862 × 585 ) / 1
LCM(862,585) = 504270 / 1
LCM(862,585) = 504270
