Lets's calculate LCM of 901,588
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 529788
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/529788
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 778/901,568/588 is 2/529788
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 901,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(901,588) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(901,588) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(901,588) = ( 901 × 588 ) / 1
LCM(901,588) = 529788 / 1
LCM(901,588) = 529788
