Lets's calculate LCM of 974,5639
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5492386
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 574/5492386
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6314/974,5740/5639 is 574/5492386
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 974,5639 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(974,5639) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(974,5639) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(974,5639) = ( 974 × 5639 ) / 1
LCM(974,5639) = 5492386 / 1
LCM(974,5639) = 5492386
