Lets's calculate LCM of 836,588
2 | 836, 588 |
2 | 418, 294 |
209, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 209 x 147 = 122892
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/122892
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1818/836,1049/588 is 1/122892
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 836,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(836,588) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(836,588) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(836,588) = ( 836 × 588 ) / 4
LCM(836,588) = 491568 / 4
LCM(836,588) = 122892
