Lets's calculate LCM of 695,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 387115
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 155/387115
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5735/695,8215/557 is 155/387115
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 695,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(695,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(695,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(695,557) = ( 695 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(695,557) = 387115 / 1
LCM(695,557) = 387115
