Lets's calculate LCM of 224,418
2 | 224, 418 |
112, 209 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 112 x 209 = 46816
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46816
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 736/224,745/418 is 1/46816
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 224,418 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,418) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,418) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(224,418) = ( 224 × 418 ) / 2
LCM(224,418) = 93632 / 2
LCM(224,418) = 46816
