Lets's calculate LCM of 584,2617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1528328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1528328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5308/584,4118/2617 is 2/1528328
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 584,2617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(584,2617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(584,2617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(584,2617) = ( 584 × 2617 ) / 1
LCM(584,2617) = 1528328 / 1
LCM(584,2617) = 1528328
