2 | 616, 956 |
2 | 308, 478 |
154, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 154 x 239 = 147224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/147224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9589/616,5991/956 is 1/147224
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 616,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(616,956) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(616,956) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(616,956) = ( 616 × 956 ) / 4
LCM(616,956) = 588896 / 4
LCM(616,956) = 147224
