Lets's calculate LCM of 147,5723
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 841281
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/841281
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 559/147,5375/5723 is 43/841281
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 147,5723 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(147,5723) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(147,5723) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(147,5723) = ( 147 × 5723 ) / 1
LCM(147,5723) = 841281 / 1
LCM(147,5723) = 841281
