The factors of 47 are 1, 47
The factors of 59 are 1, 59
The HCF of 47,59 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 47,59
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 599,2396
599 | 599, 2396 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 599 x 1 x 4 = 2396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/599,59/2396 is 1/2396
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 599,2396 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,2396) = 599
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,2396) x common factors =599 x 1 = 599
LCM(599,2396) = ( 599 × 2396 ) / 599
LCM(599,2396) = 1435204 / 599
LCM(599,2396) = 2396
