Lets's calculate LCM of 233,476
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/110908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 849/233,1778/476 is 1/110908
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 233,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,476) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,476) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,476) = ( 233 × 476 ) / 1
LCM(233,476) = 110908 / 1
LCM(233,476) = 110908
