Lets's calculate LCM of 989,531
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 525159
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/525159
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 616/989,245/531 is 7/525159
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 989,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,531) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,531) = ( 989 × 531 ) / 1
LCM(989,531) = 525159 / 1
LCM(989,531) = 525159
