Lets's calculate LCM of 226,538
2 | 226, 538 |
113, 269 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 113 x 269 = 60794
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/60794
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 627/226,451/538 is 11/60794
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 226,538 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,538) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,538) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(226,538) = ( 226 × 538 ) / 2
LCM(226,538) = 121588 / 2
LCM(226,538) = 60794
