So the greatest common factor 22,5037 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,7208
2 | 888, 7208 |
2 | 444, 3604 |
2 | 222, 1802 |
111, 901 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 111 x 901 = 800088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/800088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 22/888,5037/7208 is 1/800088
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 888,7208 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,7208) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,7208) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(888,7208) = ( 888 × 7208 ) / 8
LCM(888,7208) = 6400704 / 8
LCM(888,7208) = 800088
