Lets's calculate LCM of 225,628
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 141300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/141300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1504/225,8732/628 is 4/141300
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 225,628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(225,628) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(225,628) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(225,628) = ( 225 × 628 ) / 1
LCM(225,628) = 141300 / 1
LCM(225,628) = 141300
