So the greatest common factor 1003,2233 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 846,262
2 | 846, 262 |
423, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 423 x 131 = 110826
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/110826
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1003/846,2233/262 is 1/110826
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 846,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(846,262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(846,262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(846,262) = ( 846 × 262 ) / 2
LCM(846,262) = 221652 / 2
LCM(846,262) = 110826
