Lets's calculate LCM of 862,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 507718
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/507718
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7698/862,4512/589 is 6/507718
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 862,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,589) = ( 862 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(862,589) = 507718 / 1
LCM(862,589) = 507718
