Lets's calculate LCM of 590,4372
2 | 590, 4372 |
295, 2186 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 295 x 2186 = 1289740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1289740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5576/590,2998/4372 is 2/1289740
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 590,4372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(590,4372) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(590,4372) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(590,4372) = ( 590 × 4372 ) / 2
LCM(590,4372) = 2579480 / 2
LCM(590,4372) = 1289740
