Lets's calculate LCM of 594,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 349866
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/349866
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 822/594,339/589 is 3/349866
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 594,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(594,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(594,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(594,589) = ( 594 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(594,589) = 349866 / 1
LCM(594,589) = 349866
