Lets's calculate LCM of 586,8422
2 | 586, 8422 |
293, 4211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 293 x 4211 = 2467646
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2467646
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2302/586,3648/8422 is 2/2467646
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 586,8422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,8422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,8422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(586,8422) = ( 586 × 8422 ) / 2
LCM(586,8422) = 4935292 / 2
LCM(586,8422) = 2467646
