Lets's calculate LCM of 391,674
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 263534
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/263534
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5834/391,5966/674 is 2/263534
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 391,674 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(391,674) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(391,674) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(391,674) = ( 391 × 674 ) / 1
LCM(391,674) = 263534 / 1
LCM(391,674) = 263534
