Lets's calculate LCM of 557,3568
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1987376
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1987376
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7326/557,2191/3568 is 1/1987376
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 557,3568 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(557,3568) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(557,3568) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(557,3568) = ( 557 × 3568 ) / 1
LCM(557,3568) = 1987376 / 1
LCM(557,3568) = 1987376
