Lets's calculate LCM of 199,608
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 120992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/120992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1276/199,9234/608 is 2/120992
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 199,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(199,608) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(199,608) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(199,608) = ( 199 × 608 ) / 1
LCM(199,608) = 120992 / 1
LCM(199,608) = 120992
