So the greatest common factor 308,258 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 385,571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 219835
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/219835
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 308/385,258/571 is 2/219835
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 385,571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(385,571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(385,571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(385,571) = ( 385 × 571 ) / 1
LCM(385,571) = 219835 / 1
LCM(385,571) = 219835
