Lets's calculate LCM of 221,1416
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 312936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/312936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9572/221,8532/1416 is 4/312936
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 221,1416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(221,1416) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(221,1416) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(221,1416) = ( 221 × 1416 ) / 1
LCM(221,1416) = 312936 / 1
LCM(221,1416) = 312936
