Lets's calculate LCM of 953,549
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 523197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/523197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 638/953,435/549 is 29/523197
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 953,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,549) = ( 953 × 549 ) / 1
LCM(953,549) = 523197 / 1
LCM(953,549) = 523197
