Lets's calculate LCM of 538,1377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 740826
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/740826
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6555/538,1288/1377 is 23/740826
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 538,1377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,1377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,1377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,1377) = ( 538 × 1377 ) / 1
LCM(538,1377) = 740826 / 1
LCM(538,1377) = 740826
