Lets's calculate LCM of 559,5584
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3121456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3121456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7482/559,4646/5584 is 2/3121456
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 559,5584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,5584) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,5584) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,5584) = ( 559 × 5584 ) / 1
LCM(559,5584) = 3121456 / 1
LCM(559,5584) = 3121456
