So the greatest common factor 568,168 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 951,583
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 554433
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/554433
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 568/951,168/583 is 8/554433
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 951,583 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(951,583) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(951,583) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(951,583) = ( 951 × 583 ) / 1
LCM(951,583) = 554433 / 1
LCM(951,583) = 554433
