Lets's calculate LCM of 238,374
2 | 238, 374 |
17 | 119, 187 |
7, 11 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 7 x 11 = 2618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 105/238,9162/374 is 3/2618
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 238,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,374) = 34
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,374) x common factors =34 x 1 = 34
LCM(238,374) = ( 238 × 374 ) / 34
LCM(238,374) = 89012 / 34
LCM(238,374) = 2618
