So the greatest common factor 6903,7917 is 39.
Lets's calculate LCM of 232,4208
2 | 232, 4208 |
2 | 116, 2104 |
2 | 58, 1052 |
29, 526 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 29 x 526 = 122032
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 39/122032
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6903/232,7917/4208 is 39/122032
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 232,4208 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,4208) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,4208) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(232,4208) = ( 232 × 4208 ) / 8
LCM(232,4208) = 976256 / 8
LCM(232,4208) = 122032
