Lets's calculate LCM of 224,6641
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1487584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1487584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6251/224,5533/6641 is 1/1487584
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 224,6641 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,6641) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,6641) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(224,6641) = ( 224 × 6641 ) / 1
LCM(224,6641) = 1487584 / 1
LCM(224,6641) = 1487584
