So the greatest common factor 1722,9803 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 238,2386
2 | 238, 2386 |
119, 1193 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 1193 = 283934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/283934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1722/238,9803/2386 is 1/283934
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 238,2386 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,2386) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,2386) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(238,2386) = ( 238 × 2386 ) / 2
LCM(238,2386) = 567868 / 2
LCM(238,2386) = 283934
