Lets's calculate LCM of 231,7817
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1805727
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1805727
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2636/231,7568/7817 is 4/1805727
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 231,7817 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,7817) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,7817) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,7817) = ( 231 × 7817 ) / 1
LCM(231,7817) = 1805727 / 1
LCM(231,7817) = 1805727
