Lets's calculate LCM of 239,556
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132884
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/132884
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 323/239,3196/556 is 17/132884
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 239,556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,556) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,556) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,556) = ( 239 × 556 ) / 1
LCM(239,556) = 132884 / 1
LCM(239,556) = 132884
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
