So the greatest common factor 759,640 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 311,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 185978
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/185978
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 759/311,640/598 is 1/185978
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 311,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(311,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(311,598) = ( 311 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(311,598) = 185978 / 1
LCM(311,598) = 185978
