Lets's calculate LCM of 235,7329
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1722315
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1722315
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9256/235,2422/7329 is 2/1722315
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 235,7329 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(235,7329) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(235,7329) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(235,7329) = ( 235 × 7329 ) / 1
LCM(235,7329) = 1722315 / 1
LCM(235,7329) = 1722315
