Lets's calculate LCM of 356,5788
2 | 356, 5788 |
2 | 178, 2894 |
89, 1447 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 89 x 1447 = 515132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/515132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2596/356,4029/5788 is 1/515132
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 356,5788 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(356,5788) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(356,5788) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(356,5788) = ( 356 × 5788 ) / 4
LCM(356,5788) = 2060528 / 4
LCM(356,5788) = 515132
