So the greatest common factor 2752,8068 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 166708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/166708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2752/284,8068/587 is 4/166708
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 284,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,587) = ( 284 × 587 ) / 1
LCM(284,587) = 166708 / 1
LCM(284,587) = 166708
