So the greatest common factor 544,528 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,2238
2 | 58, 2238 |
29, 1119 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 1119 = 64902
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/64902
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 544/58,528/2238 is 16/64902
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 58,2238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,2238) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(58,2238) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(58,2238) = ( 58 × 2238 ) / 2
LCM(58,2238) = 129804 / 2
LCM(58,2238) = 64902
