Lets's calculate LCM of 596,5428
2 | 596, 5428 |
2 | 298, 2714 |
149, 1357 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 149 x 1357 = 808772
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/808772
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8955/596,5082/5428 is 3/808772
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 596,5428 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,5428) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,5428) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(596,5428) = ( 596 × 5428 ) / 4
LCM(596,5428) = 3235088 / 4
LCM(596,5428) = 808772
