Lets's calculate LCM of 237,770
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 182490
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/182490
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 616/237,294/770 is 14/182490
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 237,770 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,770) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,770) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,770) = ( 237 × 770 ) / 1
LCM(237,770) = 182490 / 1
LCM(237,770) = 182490
