Lets's calculate LCM of 914,7489
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6844946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6844946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8588/914,2522/7489 is 2/6844946
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 914,7489 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(914,7489) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(914,7489) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(914,7489) = ( 914 × 7489 ) / 1
LCM(914,7489) = 6844946 / 1
LCM(914,7489) = 6844946
