Lets's calculate LCM of 587,771
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 452577
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/452577
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7474/587,9798/771 is 2/452577
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 587,771 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(587,771) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(587,771) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(587,771) = ( 587 × 771 ) / 1
LCM(587,771) = 452577 / 1
LCM(587,771) = 452577
