Lets's calculate LCM of 632,588
2 | 632, 588 |
2 | 316, 294 |
158, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 158 x 147 = 92904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/92904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 908/632,518/588 is 2/92904
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 632,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(632,588) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(632,588) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(632,588) = ( 632 × 588 ) / 4
LCM(632,588) = 371616 / 4
LCM(632,588) = 92904
