Lets's calculate LCM of 589,1203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 708567
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/708567
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8852/589,4180/1203 is 4/708567
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 589,1203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(589,1203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(589,1203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(589,1203) = ( 589 × 1203 ) / 1
LCM(589,1203) = 708567 / 1
LCM(589,1203) = 708567
