Lets's calculate LCM of 236,6133
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1447388
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1447388
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1332/236,5932/6133 is 4/1447388
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 236,6133 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,6133) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,6133) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,6133) = ( 236 × 6133 ) / 1
LCM(236,6133) = 1447388 / 1
LCM(236,6133) = 1447388
