So the greatest common factor 5855,2632 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 139,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 83122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5855/139,2632/598 is 1/83122
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 139,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(139,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(139,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(139,598) = ( 139 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(139,598) = 83122 / 1
LCM(139,598) = 83122
