Lets's calculate LCM of 221,8784
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1941264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1941264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2968/221,1765/8784 is 1/1941264
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 221,8784 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(221,8784) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(221,8784) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(221,8784) = ( 221 × 8784 ) / 1
LCM(221,8784) = 1941264 / 1
LCM(221,8784) = 1941264
