7 | 238, 3423 |
34, 489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 34 x 489 = 116382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/116382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8671/238,1226/3423 is 1/116382
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 238,3423 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,3423) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,3423) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(238,3423) = ( 238 × 3423 ) / 7
LCM(238,3423) = 814674 / 7
LCM(238,3423) = 116382
