We found the factors 7142,6290 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7142,6290 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 233,2112
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 492096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/492096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7142/233,6290/2112 is 2/492096
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 233,2112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,2112) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,2112) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,2112) = ( 233 × 2112 ) / 1
LCM(233,2112) = 492096 / 1
LCM(233,2112) = 492096
