Lets's calculate LCM of 295,1224
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 361080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/361080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8178/295,8587/1224 is 1/361080
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 295,1224 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,1224) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,1224) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(295,1224) = ( 295 × 1224 ) / 1
LCM(295,1224) = 361080 / 1
LCM(295,1224) = 361080
