So the greatest common factor 5751,5572 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 420,598
2 | 420, 598 |
210, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 210 x 299 = 125580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/125580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5751/420,5572/598 is 1/125580
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 420,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,598) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(420,598) = ( 420 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(420,598) = 251160 / 2
LCM(420,598) = 125580
