Lets's calculate LCM of 228,8667
3 | 228, 8667 |
76, 2889 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 76 x 2889 = 658692
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/658692
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2418/228,2589/8667 is 3/658692
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 228,8667 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(228,8667) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(228,8667) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(228,8667) = ( 228 × 8667 ) / 3
LCM(228,8667) = 1976076 / 3
LCM(228,8667) = 658692
