Lets's calculate LCM of 63,586
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/36918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7046/63,8898/586 is 2/36918
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 63,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(63,586) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(63,586) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(63,586) = ( 63 × 586 ) / 1
LCM(63,586) = 36918 / 1
LCM(63,586) = 36918
