So the greatest common factor 4238,9088 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,278
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/18626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4238/67,9088/278 is 2/18626
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 67,278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,278) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,278) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,278) = ( 67 × 278 ) / 1
LCM(67,278) = 18626 / 1
LCM(67,278) = 18626
