Lets's calculate LCM of 226,721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/162946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2517/226,7367/721 is 1/162946
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 226,721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(226,721) = ( 226 × 721 ) / 1
LCM(226,721) = 162946 / 1
LCM(226,721) = 162946
