We found the factors 886,2218 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 886,2218 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 205,775
5 | 205, 775 |
41, 155 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 41 x 155 = 31775
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/31775
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 886/205,2218/775 is 2/31775
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 205,775 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,775) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,775) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(205,775) = ( 205 × 775 ) / 5
LCM(205,775) = 158875 / 5
LCM(205,775) = 31775
