Lets's calculate LCM of 572,2259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1292148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1292148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5882/572,1898/2259 is 2/1292148
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 572,2259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,2259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,2259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(572,2259) = ( 572 × 2259 ) / 1
LCM(572,2259) = 1292148 / 1
LCM(572,2259) = 1292148
