Lets's calculate LCM of 335,221
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74035
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/74035
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 826/335,536/221 is 2/74035
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 335,221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(335,221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(335,221) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(335,221) = ( 335 × 221 ) / 1
LCM(335,221) = 74035 / 1
LCM(335,221) = 74035
