So the greatest common factor 912,487 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 238,696
2 | 238, 696 |
119, 348 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 119 x 348 = 82824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/82824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 912/238,487/696 is 1/82824
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 238,696 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,696) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,696) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(238,696) = ( 238 × 696 ) / 2
LCM(238,696) = 165648 / 2
LCM(238,696) = 82824
