Lets's calculate LCM of 558,8851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4938858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4938858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8279/558,1338/8851 is 1/4938858
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 558,8851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,8851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(558,8851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(558,8851) = ( 558 × 8851 ) / 1
LCM(558,8851) = 4938858 / 1
LCM(558,8851) = 4938858
