Lets's calculate LCM of 539,711
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 383229
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/383229
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 656/539,369/711 is 41/383229
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 539,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,711) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,711) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,711) = ( 539 × 711 ) / 1
LCM(539,711) = 383229 / 1
LCM(539,711) = 383229
