So the greatest common factor 285,906 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 224,654
2 | 224, 654 |
112, 327 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 112 x 327 = 73248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/73248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 285/224,906/654 is 3/73248
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 224,654 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,654) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,654) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(224,654) = ( 224 × 654 ) / 2
LCM(224,654) = 146496 / 2
LCM(224,654) = 73248
