Lets's calculate LCM of 817,5560
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4542520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/4542520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 225/817,7227/5560 is 9/4542520
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 817,5560 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(817,5560) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(817,5560) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(817,5560) = ( 817 × 5560 ) / 1
LCM(817,5560) = 4542520 / 1
LCM(817,5560) = 4542520
