Lets's calculate LCM of 235,378
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 88830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/88830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 962/235,2529/378 is 1/88830
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 235,378 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(235,378) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(235,378) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(235,378) = ( 235 × 378 ) / 1
LCM(235,378) = 88830 / 1
LCM(235,378) = 88830
