So the greatest common factor 702,656 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,586
2 | 26, 586 |
13, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 293 = 7618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 702/26,656/586 is 2/7618
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 26,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,586) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,586) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(26,586) = ( 26 × 586 ) / 2
LCM(26,586) = 15236 / 2
LCM(26,586) = 7618
