Lets's calculate LCM of 586,6718
2 | 586, 6718 |
293, 3359 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 293 x 3359 = 1968374
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1968374
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3040/586,1733/6718 is 1/1968374
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 586,6718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,6718) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,6718) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(586,6718) = ( 586 × 6718 ) / 2
LCM(586,6718) = 3936748 / 2
LCM(586,6718) = 1968374
