So the greatest common factor 299,124 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 528,296
2 | 528, 296 |
2 | 264, 148 |
2 | 132, 74 |
66, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 66 x 37 = 19536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 299/528,124/296 is 1/19536
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 528,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(528,296) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(528,296) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(528,296) = ( 528 × 296 ) / 8
LCM(528,296) = 156288 / 8
LCM(528,296) = 19536
