Lets's calculate LCM of 598,403
13 | 598, 403 |
46, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 46 x 31 = 18538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8417/598,9720/403 is 1/18538
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 598,403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(598,403) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(598,403) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(598,403) = ( 598 × 403 ) / 13
LCM(598,403) = 240994 / 13
LCM(598,403) = 18538
