Lets's calculate LCM of 239,4008
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 957912
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/957912
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4811/239,7157/4008 is 17/957912
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 239,4008 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,4008) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,4008) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,4008) = ( 239 × 4008 ) / 1
LCM(239,4008) = 957912 / 1
LCM(239,4008) = 957912
