So the greatest common factor 314,472 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 205,939
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 192495
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/192495
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 314/205,472/939 is 2/192495
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 205,939 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,939) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,939) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(205,939) = ( 205 × 939 ) / 1
LCM(205,939) = 192495 / 1
LCM(205,939) = 192495
