So the greatest common factor 8312,6870 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,4618
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1066758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1066758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8312/231,6870/4618 is 2/1066758
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 231,4618 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,4618) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,4618) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,4618) = ( 231 × 4618 ) / 1
LCM(231,4618) = 1066758 / 1
LCM(231,4618) = 1066758
