Lets's calculate LCM of 588,8352
2 | 588, 8352 |
2 | 294, 4176 |
3 | 147, 2088 |
49, 696 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 49 x 696 = 409248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/409248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2314/588,7241/8352 is 13/409248
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 588,8352 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,8352) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,8352) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(588,8352) = ( 588 × 8352 ) / 12
LCM(588,8352) = 4910976 / 12
LCM(588,8352) = 409248
