Lets's calculate LCM of 539,501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 270039
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/270039
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6826/539,5566/501 is 2/270039
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 539,501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,501) = ( 539 × 501 ) / 1
LCM(539,501) = 270039 / 1
LCM(539,501) = 270039
