Lets's calculate LCM of 155,576
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 89280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/89280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5514/155,8156/576 is 2/89280
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 155,576 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(155,576) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(155,576) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(155,576) = ( 155 × 576 ) / 1
LCM(155,576) = 89280 / 1
LCM(155,576) = 89280
