Lets's calculate LCM of 555,8591
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4768005
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4768005
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 86/555,5118/8591 is 2/4768005
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 555,8591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(555,8591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(555,8591) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(555,8591) = ( 555 × 8591 ) / 1
LCM(555,8591) = 4768005 / 1
LCM(555,8591) = 4768005
