Lets's calculate LCM of 553,6182
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3418646
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3418646
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8538/553,3857/6182 is 1/3418646
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 553,6182 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(553,6182) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(553,6182) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(553,6182) = ( 553 × 6182 ) / 1
LCM(553,6182) = 3418646 / 1
LCM(553,6182) = 3418646
