So the greatest common factor 5514,6258 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 226,8302
2 | 226, 8302 |
113, 4151 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 113 x 4151 = 938126
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/938126
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5514/226,6258/8302 is 6/938126
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 226,8302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,8302) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,8302) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(226,8302) = ( 226 × 8302 ) / 2
LCM(226,8302) = 1876252 / 2
LCM(226,8302) = 938126
