1,9421
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 584,9421 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 584,9421 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 436,596
2 | 436, 596 |
2 | 218, 298 |
109, 149 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 109 x 149 = 64964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/64964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 584/436,9421/596 is 1/64964
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 436,596 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(436,596) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(436,596) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(436,596) = ( 436 × 596 ) / 4
LCM(436,596) = 259856 / 4
LCM(436,596) = 64964
