Lets's calculate LCM of 593,685
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 406205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/406205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 259/593,886/685 is 1/406205
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 593,685 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(593,685) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(593,685) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(593,685) = ( 593 × 685 ) / 1
LCM(593,685) = 406205 / 1
LCM(593,685) = 406205
