So the greatest common factor 226,864 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 107,553
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59171
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59171
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 226/107,864/553 is 2/59171
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 107,553 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(107,553) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(107,553) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(107,553) = ( 107 × 553 ) / 1
LCM(107,553) = 59171 / 1
LCM(107,553) = 59171
