2 | 236, 6230 |
118, 3115 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 118 x 3115 = 735140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/735140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2506/236,2537/6230 is 1/735140
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 236,6230 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,6230) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,6230) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(236,6230) = ( 236 × 6230 ) / 2
LCM(236,6230) = 1470280 / 2
LCM(236,6230) = 735140
