Lets's calculate LCM of 588,2497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1468236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1468236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8985/588,9157/2497 is 1/1468236
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 588,2497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,2497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,2497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(588,2497) = ( 588 × 2497 ) / 1
LCM(588,2497) = 1468236 / 1
LCM(588,2497) = 1468236
