So the greatest common factor 950,952 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 237,511
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 121107
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/121107
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/237,952/511 is 2/121107
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 237,511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,511) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,511) = ( 237 × 511 ) / 1
LCM(237,511) = 121107 / 1
LCM(237,511) = 121107
