Lets's calculate LCM of 236,9846
2 | 236, 9846 |
118, 4923 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 118 x 4923 = 1161828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1161828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7911/236,8855/9846 is 1/1161828
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 236,9846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,9846) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,9846) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(236,9846) = ( 236 × 9846 ) / 2
LCM(236,9846) = 2323656 / 2
LCM(236,9846) = 1161828
