Lets's calculate LCM of 597,8804
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5255988
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 222/5255988
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6216/597,2442/8804 is 222/5255988
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 597,8804 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(597,8804) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(597,8804) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(597,8804) = ( 597 × 8804 ) / 1
LCM(597,8804) = 5255988 / 1
LCM(597,8804) = 5255988
