Lets's calculate LCM of 588,881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 518028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/518028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4618/588,7216/881 is 2/518028
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 588,881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(588,881) = ( 588 × 881 ) / 1
LCM(588,881) = 518028 / 1
LCM(588,881) = 518028
