So the greatest common factor 6084,3156 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 571,437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 249527
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/249527
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6084/571,3156/437 is 12/249527
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 571,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,437) = ( 571 × 437 ) / 1
LCM(571,437) = 249527 / 1
LCM(571,437) = 249527
