Lets's calculate LCM of 578,1359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 785502
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/785502
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6264/578,3997/1359 is 1/785502
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 578,1359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,1359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,1359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(578,1359) = ( 578 × 1359 ) / 1
LCM(578,1359) = 785502 / 1
LCM(578,1359) = 785502
