Lets's calculate LCM of 899,235
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 211265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/211265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8320/899,1148/235 is 4/211265
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 899,235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,235) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,235) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,235) = ( 899 × 235 ) / 1
LCM(899,235) = 211265 / 1
LCM(899,235) = 211265
