Lets's calculate LCM of 549,556

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 305244

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/305244

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 285/549,1731/556 is 3/305244

Least Common Multiple of 549,556 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 549,556 with GCF Formula

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 549,556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(549,556) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(549,556) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(549,556) = ( 549 × 556 ) / 1

LCM(549,556) = 305244 / 1

LCM(549,556) = 305244
