Lets's calculate LCM of 229,333
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 76257
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/76257
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 264/229,8139/333 is 3/76257
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 229,333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(229,333) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(229,333) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(229,333) = ( 229 × 333 ) / 1
LCM(229,333) = 76257 / 1
LCM(229,333) = 76257
