Lets's calculate LCM of 596,488
2 | 596, 488 |
2 | 298, 244 |
149, 122 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 149 x 122 = 72712
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/72712
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9898/596,8384/488 is 2/72712
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 596,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,488) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,488) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(596,488) = ( 596 × 488 ) / 4
LCM(596,488) = 290848 / 4
LCM(596,488) = 72712
