So the greatest common factor 182,312 is 26.
Lets's calculate LCM of 208,387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 80496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/80496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 182/208,312/387 is 26/80496
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 208,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(208,387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(208,387) = ( 208 × 387 ) / 1
LCM(208,387) = 80496 / 1
LCM(208,387) = 80496
