Lets's calculate LCM of 233,857
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 199681
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/199681
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 104/233,8661/857 is 1/199681
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 233,857 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,857) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,857) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,857) = ( 233 × 857 ) / 1
LCM(233,857) = 199681 / 1
LCM(233,857) = 199681
