Lets's calculate LCM of 19,558

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10602

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10602

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 258/19,1996/558 is 2/10602

Least Common Multiple of 19,558 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 19,558 with GCF Formula

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 19,558 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(19,558) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(19,558) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(19,558) = ( 19 × 558 ) / 1

LCM(19,558) = 10602 / 1

LCM(19,558) = 10602
