Lets's calculate LCM of 469,586
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 274834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/274834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2558/469,9044/586 is 2/274834
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 469,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,586) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,586) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,586) = ( 469 × 586 ) / 1
LCM(469,586) = 274834 / 1
LCM(469,586) = 274834
