Lets's calculate LCM of 578,5876
2 | 578, 5876 |
289, 2938 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 2938 = 1698164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1698164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9721/578,9798/5876 is 1/1698164
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 578,5876 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,5876) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,5876) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,5876) = ( 578 × 5876 ) / 2
LCM(578,5876) = 3396328 / 2
LCM(578,5876) = 1698164
