Lets's calculate LCM of 881,689
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 607009
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/607009
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6201/881,1538/689 is 1/607009
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 881,689 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(881,689) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(881,689) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(881,689) = ( 881 × 689 ) / 1
LCM(881,689) = 607009 / 1
LCM(881,689) = 607009
