Lets's calculate LCM of 593,155
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 91915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/91915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 609/593,8601/155 is 3/91915
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 593,155 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(593,155) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(593,155) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(593,155) = ( 593 × 155 ) / 1
LCM(593,155) = 91915 / 1
LCM(593,155) = 91915
