Lets's calculate LCM of 115,683
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 78545
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/78545
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2226/115,5932/683 is 2/78545
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 115,683 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(115,683) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(115,683) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(115,683) = ( 115 × 683 ) / 1
LCM(115,683) = 78545 / 1
LCM(115,683) = 78545
