We found the factors 586,8564 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 586,8564 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 514,712
2 | 514, 712 |
257, 356 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 257 x 356 = 182984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/182984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 586/514,8564/712 is 2/182984
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 514,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(514,712) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(514,712) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(514,712) = ( 514 × 712 ) / 2
LCM(514,712) = 365968 / 2
LCM(514,712) = 182984
