Lets's calculate LCM of 596,1559
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 929164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/929164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3216/596,9271/1559 is 1/929164
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 596,1559 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,1559) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,1559) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(596,1559) = ( 596 × 1559 ) / 1
LCM(596,1559) = 929164 / 1
LCM(596,1559) = 929164
