So the greatest common factor 544,892 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,582
2 | 58, 582 |
29, 291 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 291 = 16878
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/16878
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 544/58,892/582 is 4/16878
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 58,582 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,582) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(58,582) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(58,582) = ( 58 × 582 ) / 2
LCM(58,582) = 33756 / 2
LCM(58,582) = 16878
