Lets's calculate LCM of 599,8879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5318521
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5318521
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5928/599,5636/8879 is 4/5318521
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 599,8879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,8879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,8879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,8879) = ( 599 × 8879 ) / 1
LCM(599,8879) = 5318521 / 1
LCM(599,8879) = 5318521
