Lets's calculate LCM of 588,755
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 443940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/443940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9508/588,1368/755 is 4/443940
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 588,755 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,755) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,755) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(588,755) = ( 588 × 755 ) / 1
LCM(588,755) = 443940 / 1
LCM(588,755) = 443940
