So the greatest common factor 4842,9555 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 126,226
2 | 126, 226 |
63, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 63 x 113 = 14238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/14238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4842/126,9555/226 is 3/14238
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 126,226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(126,226) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(126,226) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(126,226) = ( 126 × 226 ) / 2
LCM(126,226) = 28476 / 2
LCM(126,226) = 14238
