Lets's calculate LCM of 288,575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 165600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/165600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 660/288,294/575 is 6/165600
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 288,575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(288,575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(288,575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(288,575) = ( 288 × 575 ) / 1
LCM(288,575) = 165600 / 1
LCM(288,575) = 165600
