Lets's calculate LCM of 222,1972
2 | 222, 1972 |
111, 986 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 111 x 986 = 218892
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/218892
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7503/222,8470/1972 is 1/218892
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 222,1972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,1972) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,1972) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(222,1972) = ( 222 × 1972 ) / 2
LCM(222,1972) = 437784 / 2
LCM(222,1972) = 218892
