Lets's calculate LCM of 586,5317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3115762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3115762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1036/586,5899/5317 is 1/3115762
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 586,5317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,5317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,5317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(586,5317) = ( 586 × 5317 ) / 1
LCM(586,5317) = 3115762 / 1
LCM(586,5317) = 3115762
