We found the factors 5920,7420 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5920,7420 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 233,6188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1441804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/1441804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5920/233,7420/6188 is 20/1441804
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 233,6188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,6188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,6188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,6188) = ( 233 × 6188 ) / 1
LCM(233,6188) = 1441804 / 1
LCM(233,6188) = 1441804
