Lets's calculate LCM of 631,237
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149547
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/149547
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8258/631,7916/237 is 2/149547
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 631,237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(631,237) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(631,237) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(631,237) = ( 631 × 237 ) / 1
LCM(631,237) = 149547 / 1
LCM(631,237) = 149547
