So the greatest common factor 221,680 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,624
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/30576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 221/49,680/624 is 17/30576
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 49,624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,624) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,624) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,624) = ( 49 × 624 ) / 1
LCM(49,624) = 30576 / 1
LCM(49,624) = 30576
