Lets's calculate LCM of 235,7157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1681895
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1681895
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/235,9596/7157 is 2/1681895
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 235,7157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(235,7157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(235,7157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(235,7157) = ( 235 × 7157 ) / 1
LCM(235,7157) = 1681895 / 1
LCM(235,7157) = 1681895
