Lets's calculate LCM of 179,629
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 112591
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112591
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 583/179,238/629 is 1/112591
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 179,629 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(179,629) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(179,629) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(179,629) = ( 179 × 629 ) / 1
LCM(179,629) = 112591 / 1
LCM(179,629) = 112591
