Lets's calculate LCM of 581,724
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 420644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/420644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5846/581,1630/724 is 2/420644
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 581,724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(581,724) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(581,724) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(581,724) = ( 581 × 724 ) / 1
LCM(581,724) = 420644 / 1
LCM(581,724) = 420644
