Lets's calculate LCM of 827,456
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 377112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/377112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 221/827,4428/456 is 1/377112
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 827,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(827,456) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(827,456) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(827,456) = ( 827 × 456 ) / 1
LCM(827,456) = 377112 / 1
LCM(827,456) = 377112
