So the greatest common factor 1652,5446 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 415,238
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 98770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/98770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1652/415,5446/238 is 14/98770
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 415,238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(415,238) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(415,238) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(415,238) = ( 415 × 238 ) / 1
LCM(415,238) = 98770 / 1
LCM(415,238) = 98770
