Lets's calculate LCM of 599,891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 533709
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/533709
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4174/599,9168/891 is 2/533709
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 599,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,891) = ( 599 × 891 ) / 1
LCM(599,891) = 533709 / 1
LCM(599,891) = 533709
