Lets's calculate LCM of 236,622
2 | 236, 622 |
118, 311 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 118 x 311 = 73396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 239/236,608/622 is 1/73396
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 236,622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,622) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,622) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(236,622) = ( 236 × 622 ) / 2
LCM(236,622) = 146792 / 2
LCM(236,622) = 73396
