So the greatest common factor 2248,1955 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,177
3 | 264, 177 |
88, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 88 x 59 = 15576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2248/264,1955/177 is 1/15576
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 264,177 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,177) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,177) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(264,177) = ( 264 × 177 ) / 3
LCM(264,177) = 46728 / 3
LCM(264,177) = 15576
