Lets's calculate LCM of 861,6422
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5529342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/5529342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6580/861,3555/6422 is 5/5529342
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 861,6422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(861,6422) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(861,6422) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(861,6422) = ( 861 × 6422 ) / 1
LCM(861,6422) = 5529342 / 1
LCM(861,6422) = 5529342
