Lets's calculate LCM of 538,7159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3851542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3851542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/538,7682/7159 is 2/3851542
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 538,7159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,7159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,7159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,7159) = ( 538 × 7159 ) / 1
LCM(538,7159) = 3851542 / 1
LCM(538,7159) = 3851542
