So the greatest common factor 364,966 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 227,736
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 167072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/167072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 364/227,966/736 is 14/167072
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 227,736 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(227,736) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(227,736) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(227,736) = ( 227 × 736 ) / 1
LCM(227,736) = 167072 / 1
LCM(227,736) = 167072
