Lets's calculate LCM of 74,239
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7596/74,7838/239 is 2/17686
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 74,239 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,239) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,239) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,239) = ( 74 × 239 ) / 1
LCM(74,239) = 17686 / 1
LCM(74,239) = 17686
