So the greatest common factor 1991,6047 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 588,8584
2 | 588, 8584 |
2 | 294, 4292 |
147, 2146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 147 x 2146 = 1261848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1261848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1991/588,6047/8584 is 1/1261848
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 588,8584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,8584) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,8584) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(588,8584) = ( 588 × 8584 ) / 4
LCM(588,8584) = 5047392 / 4
LCM(588,8584) = 1261848
