Lets's calculate LCM of 456,588
2 | 456, 588 |
2 | 228, 294 |
3 | 114, 147 |
38, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 38 x 49 = 22344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 136/456,967/588 is 1/22344
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 456,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(456,588) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(456,588) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(456,588) = ( 456 × 588 ) / 12
LCM(456,588) = 268128 / 12
LCM(456,588) = 22344
