Lets's calculate LCM of 261,2659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 693999
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/693999
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6139/261,5845/2659 is 7/693999
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 261,2659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,2659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,2659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,2659) = ( 261 × 2659 ) / 1
LCM(261,2659) = 693999 / 1
LCM(261,2659) = 693999
