So the greatest common factor 973,821 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,2226
3 | 15, 2226 |
5, 742 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 742 = 11130
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11130
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 973/15,821/2226 is 1/11130
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 15,2226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,2226) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,2226) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(15,2226) = ( 15 × 2226 ) / 3
LCM(15,2226) = 33390 / 3
LCM(15,2226) = 11130
