Lets's calculate LCM of 606,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362994
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/362994
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4290/606,4238/599 is 26/362994
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 606,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(606,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(606,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(606,599) = ( 606 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(606,599) = 362994 / 1
LCM(606,599) = 362994
