So the greatest common factor 386,222 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,760
19 | 589, 760 |
31, 40 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 19 x 31 x 40 = 23560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/23560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/589,222/760 is 2/23560
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 589,760 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,760) = 19
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,760) x common factors =19 x 1 = 19
LCM(589,760) = ( 589 × 760 ) / 19
LCM(589,760) = 447640 / 19
LCM(589,760) = 23560
