Lets's calculate LCM of 219,818
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 179142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 119/179142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 952/219,357/818 is 119/179142
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 219,818 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(219,818) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(219,818) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(219,818) = ( 219 × 818 ) / 1
LCM(219,818) = 179142 / 1
LCM(219,818) = 179142
