Lets's calculate LCM of 590,6844
2 | 590, 6844 |
59 | 295, 3422 |
5, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 59 x 5 x 58 = 34220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2378/590,1603/6844 is 1/34220
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 590,6844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(590,6844) = 118
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(590,6844) x common factors =118 x 1 = 118
LCM(590,6844) = ( 590 × 6844 ) / 118
LCM(590,6844) = 4037960 / 118
LCM(590,6844) = 34220
