Lets's calculate LCM of 508,285
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 144780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/144780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 616/508,598/285 is 2/144780
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 508,285 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,285) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,285) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(508,285) = ( 508 × 285 ) / 1
LCM(508,285) = 144780 / 1
LCM(508,285) = 144780
