Lets's calculate LCM of 608,136
2 | 608, 136 |
2 | 304, 68 |
2 | 152, 34 |
76, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 76 x 17 = 10336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 678/608,589/136 is 1/10336
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 608,136 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(608,136) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(608,136) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(608,136) = ( 608 × 136 ) / 8
LCM(608,136) = 82688 / 8
LCM(608,136) = 10336
