Lets's calculate LCM of 654,1588
2 | 654, 1588 |
327, 794 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 327 x 794 = 519276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/519276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3901/654,2376/1588 is 1/519276
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 654,1588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(654,1588) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(654,1588) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(654,1588) = ( 654 × 1588 ) / 2
LCM(654,1588) = 1038552 / 2
LCM(654,1588) = 519276
