Lets's calculate LCM of 588,4915
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2890020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/2890020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7168/588,5344/4915 is 32/2890020
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 588,4915 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,4915) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,4915) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(588,4915) = ( 588 × 4915 ) / 1
LCM(588,4915) = 2890020 / 1
LCM(588,4915) = 2890020
