Lets's calculate LCM of 233,239
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 55687
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/55687
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2068/233,4188/239 is 4/55687
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 233,239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,239) = ( 233 × 239 ) / 1
LCM(233,239) = 55687 / 1
LCM(233,239) = 55687
