Lets's calculate LCM of 577,5296
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3055792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3055792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6885/577,4237/5296 is 1/3055792
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 577,5296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(577,5296) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(577,5296) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(577,5296) = ( 577 × 5296 ) / 1
LCM(577,5296) = 3055792 / 1
LCM(577,5296) = 3055792
