Lets's calculate LCM of 225,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110925
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/110925
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3558/225,8719/493 is 1/110925
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 225,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(225,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(225,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(225,493) = ( 225 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(225,493) = 110925 / 1
LCM(225,493) = 110925
