Lets's calculate LCM of 271,7299
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1978029
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1978029
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5589/271,3345/7299 is 3/1978029
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 271,7299 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,7299) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,7299) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,7299) = ( 271 × 7299 ) / 1
LCM(271,7299) = 1978029 / 1
LCM(271,7299) = 1978029
