So the greatest common factor 5243,2163 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 224,5029
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1126496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1126496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5243/224,2163/5029 is 7/1126496
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 224,5029 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,5029) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,5029) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(224,5029) = ( 224 × 5029 ) / 1
LCM(224,5029) = 1126496 / 1
LCM(224,5029) = 1126496
