So the greatest common factor 975,357 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,652
2 | 586, 652 |
293, 326 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 293 x 326 = 191036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/191036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 975/586,357/652 is 3/191036
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 586,652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,652) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,652) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(586,652) = ( 586 × 652 ) / 2
LCM(586,652) = 382072 / 2
LCM(586,652) = 191036
