Lets's calculate LCM of 656,6551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4297456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4297456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8889/656,2724/6551 is 3/4297456
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 656,6551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,6551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,6551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,6551) = ( 656 × 6551 ) / 1
LCM(656,6551) = 4297456 / 1
LCM(656,6551) = 4297456
