Lets's calculate LCM of 590,1060
2 | 590, 1060 |
5 | 295, 530 |
59, 106 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 59 x 106 = 62540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/62540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7642/590,6538/1060 is 2/62540
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 590,1060 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(590,1060) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(590,1060) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(590,1060) = ( 590 × 1060 ) / 10
LCM(590,1060) = 625400 / 10
LCM(590,1060) = 62540
