Lets's calculate LCM of 584,3722
2 | 584, 3722 |
292, 1861 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 292 x 1861 = 1086824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1086824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6680/584,4236/3722 is 4/1086824
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 584,3722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(584,3722) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(584,3722) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(584,3722) = ( 584 × 3722 ) / 2
LCM(584,3722) = 2173648 / 2
LCM(584,3722) = 1086824
