Lets's calculate LCM of 884,598
2 | 884, 598 |
13 | 442, 299 |
34, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 34 x 23 = 20332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/20332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5926/884,1802/598 is 2/20332
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 884,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(884,598) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(884,598) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(884,598) = ( 884 × 598 ) / 26
LCM(884,598) = 528632 / 26
LCM(884,598) = 20332
