Lets's calculate LCM of 978,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 222006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/222006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2184/978,6346/227 is 2/222006
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 978,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(978,227) = ( 978 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(978,227) = 222006 / 1
LCM(978,227) = 222006
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
