Lets's calculate LCM of 786,232
2 | 786, 232 |
393, 116 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 393 x 116 = 91176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/91176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 436/786,8239/232 is 1/91176
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 786,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,232) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,232) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(786,232) = ( 786 × 232 ) / 2
LCM(786,232) = 182352 / 2
LCM(786,232) = 91176
