Lets's calculate LCM of 47,231

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10857

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/10857

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 201/47,747/231 is 3/10857

Least Common Multiple of 47,231 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 47,231 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 47,231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(47,231) = 1

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

GCF(47,231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(47,231) = ( 47 × 231 ) / 1

LCM(47,231) = 10857 / 1

LCM(47,231) = 10857
