Lets's calculate LCM of 226,5991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1353966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1353966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8439/226,7222/5991 is 1/1353966
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 226,5991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,5991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,5991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(226,5991) = ( 226 × 5991 ) / 1
LCM(226,5991) = 1353966 / 1
LCM(226,5991) = 1353966
