Lets's calculate LCM of 595,8724
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5190780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/5190780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4550/595,1521/8724 is 13/5190780
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 595,8724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(595,8724) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(595,8724) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(595,8724) = ( 595 × 8724 ) / 1
LCM(595,8724) = 5190780 / 1
LCM(595,8724) = 5190780
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
