Lets's calculate LCM of 286,607
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 173602
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/173602
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6859/286,5174/607 is 1/173602
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 286,607 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(286,607) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(286,607) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(286,607) = ( 286 × 607 ) / 1
LCM(286,607) = 173602 / 1
LCM(286,607) = 173602
