Lets's calculate LCM of 585,8516
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4981860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4981860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3432/585,7324/8516 is 4/4981860
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 585,8516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,8516) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,8516) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(585,8516) = ( 585 × 8516 ) / 1
LCM(585,8516) = 4981860 / 1
LCM(585,8516) = 4981860
