So the greatest common factor 4836,3627 is 1209.
Lets's calculate LCM of 237,440
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 104280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1209/104280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4836/237,3627/440 is 1209/104280
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 237,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,440) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,440) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,440) = ( 237 × 440 ) / 1
LCM(237,440) = 104280 / 1
LCM(237,440) = 104280
