Lets's calculate LCM of 239,9515
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2274085
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/2274085
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3248/239,7008/9515 is 16/2274085
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 239,9515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,9515) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,9515) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,9515) = ( 239 × 9515 ) / 1
LCM(239,9515) = 2274085 / 1
LCM(239,9515) = 2274085
