Lets's calculate LCM of 237,476
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 112812
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112812
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7079/237,2691/476 is 1/112812
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 237,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,476) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,476) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,476) = ( 237 × 476 ) / 1
LCM(237,476) = 112812 / 1
LCM(237,476) = 112812
