Lets's calculate LCM of 238,297

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70686

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/70686

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 183/238,156/297 is 3/70686

Least Common Multiple of 238,297 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 238,297 with GCF Formula

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 238,297 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(238,297) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(238,297) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(238,297) = ( 238 × 297 ) / 1

LCM(238,297) = 70686 / 1

LCM(238,297) = 70686
