So the greatest common factor 1870,1132 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,766
| 2 | 578, 766 |
| 289, 383 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 383 = 221374
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/221374
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1870/578,1132/766 is 2/221374
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 578,766 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,766) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,766) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,766) = ( 578 × 766 ) / 2
LCM(578,766) = 442748 / 2
LCM(578,766) = 221374
