Lets's calculate LCM of 155,7522
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1165910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 498/1165910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5976/155,8466/7522 is 498/1165910
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 155,7522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(155,7522) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(155,7522) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(155,7522) = ( 155 × 7522 ) / 1
LCM(155,7522) = 1165910 / 1
LCM(155,7522) = 1165910
