Lets's calculate LCM of 230,992
2 | 230, 992 |
115, 496 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 115 x 496 = 114080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/114080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2346/230,5007/992 is 3/114080
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 230,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(230,992) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(230,992) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(230,992) = ( 230 × 992 ) / 2
LCM(230,992) = 228160 / 2
LCM(230,992) = 114080
