Lets's calculate LCM of 255,2226
3 | 255, 2226 |
85, 742 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 85 x 742 = 189210
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/189210
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3776/255,8948/2226 is 4/189210
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 255,2226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,2226) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,2226) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(255,2226) = ( 255 × 2226 ) / 3
LCM(255,2226) = 567630 / 3
LCM(255,2226) = 189210
