So the greatest common factor 5448,5361 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,8539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2015204
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2015204
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5448/236,5361/8539 is 3/2015204
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 236,8539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,8539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,8539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,8539) = ( 236 × 8539 ) / 1
LCM(236,8539) = 2015204 / 1
LCM(236,8539) = 2015204
