So the greatest common factor 874,620 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 562,553
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 310786
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/310786
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 874/562,620/553 is 2/310786
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 562,553 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(562,553) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(562,553) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(562,553) = ( 562 × 553 ) / 1
LCM(562,553) = 310786 / 1
LCM(562,553) = 310786
