Lets's calculate LCM of 232,9633
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2234856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2234856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8427/232,8996/9633 is 1/2234856
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 232,9633 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,9633) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,9633) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(232,9633) = ( 232 × 9633 ) / 1
LCM(232,9633) = 2234856 / 1
LCM(232,9633) = 2234856
