So the greatest common factor 1344,2304 is 192.
Lets's calculate LCM of 266,226
2 | 266, 226 |
133, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 133 x 113 = 30058
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 192/30058
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1344/266,2304/226 is 192/30058
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 266,226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(266,226) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(266,226) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(266,226) = ( 266 × 226 ) / 2
LCM(266,226) = 60116 / 2
LCM(266,226) = 30058
