Lets's calculate LCM of 479,571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 273509
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/273509
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 755/479,2272/571 is 1/273509
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 479,571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(479,571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(479,571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(479,571) = ( 479 × 571 ) / 1
LCM(479,571) = 273509 / 1
LCM(479,571) = 273509
