Lets's calculate LCM of 238,7614
2 | 238, 7614 |
119, 3807 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 3807 = 906066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/906066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8608/238,9700/7614 is 4/906066
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 238,7614 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,7614) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,7614) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(238,7614) = ( 238 × 7614 ) / 2
LCM(238,7614) = 1812132 / 2
LCM(238,7614) = 906066
