Lets's calculate LCM of 886,697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 617542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/617542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5622/886,1762/697 is 2/617542
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 886,697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(886,697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(886,697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(886,697) = ( 886 × 697 ) / 1
LCM(886,697) = 617542 / 1
LCM(886,697) = 617542
