Lets's calculate LCM of 457,936
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 427752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/427752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 590/457,427/936 is 1/427752
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 457,936 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,936) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,936) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,936) = ( 457 × 936 ) / 1
LCM(457,936) = 427752 / 1
LCM(457,936) = 427752
