Lets's calculate LCM of 238,947
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 225386
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/225386
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6636/238,3085/947 is 1/225386
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 238,947 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,947) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,947) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(238,947) = ( 238 × 947 ) / 1
LCM(238,947) = 225386 / 1
LCM(238,947) = 225386
