Lets's calculate LCM of 239,7636
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1825004
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/1825004
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 52/239,6409/7636 is 13/1825004
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 239,7636 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,7636) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,7636) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,7636) = ( 239 × 7636 ) / 1
LCM(239,7636) = 1825004 / 1
LCM(239,7636) = 1825004
