Lets's calculate LCM of 597,716
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 427452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/427452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7308/597,3218/716 is 2/427452
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 597,716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(597,716) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(597,716) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(597,716) = ( 597 × 716 ) / 1
LCM(597,716) = 427452 / 1
LCM(597,716) = 427452
