So the greatest common factor 2068,8242 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 203,3624
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 735672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/735672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2068/203,8242/3624 is 2/735672
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 203,3624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(203,3624) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(203,3624) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(203,3624) = ( 203 × 3624 ) / 1
LCM(203,3624) = 735672 / 1
LCM(203,3624) = 735672
