7 | 238, 399 |
34, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 34 x 57 = 13566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7479/238,8203/399 is 1/13566
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 238,399 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,399) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,399) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(238,399) = ( 238 × 399 ) / 7
LCM(238,399) = 94962 / 7
LCM(238,399) = 13566
