Lets's calculate LCM of 594,4229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2512026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2512026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1704/594,2254/4229 is 2/2512026
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 594,4229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(594,4229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(594,4229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(594,4229) = ( 594 × 4229 ) / 1
LCM(594,4229) = 2512026 / 1
LCM(594,4229) = 2512026
