Lets's calculate LCM of 227,5473
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1242371
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1242371
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6638/227,8797/5473 is 1/1242371
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 227,5473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(227,5473) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(227,5473) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(227,5473) = ( 227 × 5473 ) / 1
LCM(227,5473) = 1242371 / 1
LCM(227,5473) = 1242371
