Lets's calculate LCM of 931,218
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 202958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/202958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4276/931,1384/218 is 4/202958
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 931,218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(931,218) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(931,218) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(931,218) = ( 931 × 218 ) / 1
LCM(931,218) = 202958 / 1
LCM(931,218) = 202958
