Lets's calculate LCM of 590,511
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 301490
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/301490
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3066/590,7278/511 is 6/301490
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 590,511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(590,511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(590,511) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(590,511) = ( 590 × 511 ) / 1
LCM(590,511) = 301490 / 1
LCM(590,511) = 301490
