Lets's calculate LCM of 238,203
7 | 238, 203 |
34, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 34 x 29 = 6902
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/6902
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7128/238,4185/203 is 27/6902
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 238,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,203) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,203) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(238,203) = ( 238 × 203 ) / 7
LCM(238,203) = 48314 / 7
LCM(238,203) = 6902
