Lets's calculate LCM of 612,4639
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2839068
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2839068
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1140/612,2588/4639 is 4/2839068
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 612,4639 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(612,4639) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(612,4639) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(612,4639) = ( 612 × 4639 ) / 1
LCM(612,4639) = 2839068 / 1
LCM(612,4639) = 2839068
