We found the factors 5985,1568 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5985,1568 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 548,9605
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5263540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/5263540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5985/548,1568/9605 is 7/5263540
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 548,9605 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(548,9605) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(548,9605) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(548,9605) = ( 548 × 9605 ) / 1
LCM(548,9605) = 5263540 / 1
LCM(548,9605) = 5263540
