So the greatest common factor 5109,7472 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 224,2196
2 | 224, 2196 |
2 | 112, 1098 |
56, 549 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 56 x 549 = 122976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/122976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5109/224,7472/2196 is 1/122976
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 224,2196 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,2196) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,2196) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(224,2196) = ( 224 × 2196 ) / 4
LCM(224,2196) = 491904 / 4
LCM(224,2196) = 122976
