Lets's calculate LCM of 596,4591
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2736236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/2736236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4848/596,5216/4591 is 16/2736236
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 596,4591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,4591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,4591) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(596,4591) = ( 596 × 4591 ) / 1
LCM(596,4591) = 2736236 / 1
LCM(596,4591) = 2736236
