Lets's calculate LCM of 121,226
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/27346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2697/121,7188/226 is 3/27346
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 121,226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(121,226) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(121,226) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(121,226) = ( 121 × 226 ) / 1
LCM(121,226) = 27346 / 1
LCM(121,226) = 27346
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
