Lets's calculate LCM of 586,178
2 | 586, 178 |
293, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 293 x 89 = 52154
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 163/52154
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 652/586,9291/178 is 163/52154
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 586,178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,178) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,178) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(586,178) = ( 586 × 178 ) / 2
LCM(586,178) = 104308 / 2
LCM(586,178) = 52154
