Lets's calculate LCM of 871,229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 199459
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/199459
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9244/871,8648/229 is 4/199459
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 871,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(871,229) = ( 871 × 229 ) / 1
LCM(871,229) = 199459 / 1
LCM(871,229) = 199459
