Lets's calculate LCM of 278,224
2 | 278, 224 |
139, 112 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 139 x 112 = 31136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2626/278,1039/224 is 1/31136
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 278,224 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,224) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,224) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(278,224) = ( 278 × 224 ) / 2
LCM(278,224) = 62272 / 2
LCM(278,224) = 31136
