So the greatest common factor 8596,8664 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,7891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4624126
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4624126
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8596/586,8664/7891 is 4/4624126
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 586,7891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,7891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,7891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(586,7891) = ( 586 × 7891 ) / 1
LCM(586,7891) = 4624126 / 1
LCM(586,7891) = 4624126
