Lets's calculate LCM of 589,7099
31 | 589, 7099 |
19, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 31 x 19 x 229 = 134881
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/134881
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2728/589,3296/7099 is 8/134881
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 589,7099 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,7099) = 31
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,7099) x common factors =31 x 1 = 31
LCM(589,7099) = ( 589 × 7099 ) / 31
LCM(589,7099) = 4181311 / 31
LCM(589,7099) = 134881
