So the greatest common factor 7280,4304 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 589,508
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 299212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/299212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7280/589,4304/508 is 16/299212
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 589,508 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,508) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,508) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(589,508) = ( 589 × 508 ) / 1
LCM(589,508) = 299212 / 1
LCM(589,508) = 299212
