Lets's calculate LCM of 234,9617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2250378
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/2250378
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2504/234,4488/9617 is 8/2250378
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 234,9617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(234,9617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(234,9617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(234,9617) = ( 234 × 9617 ) / 1
LCM(234,9617) = 2250378 / 1
LCM(234,9617) = 2250378
