So the greatest common factor 1226,5032 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 899,275
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 247225
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/247225
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1226/899,5032/275 is 2/247225
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 899,275 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,275) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,275) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,275) = ( 899 × 275 ) / 1
LCM(899,275) = 247225 / 1
LCM(899,275) = 247225
