So the greatest common factor 5665,3146 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 222,208
2 | 222, 208 |
111, 104 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 111 x 104 = 23088
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/23088
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5665/222,3146/208 is 11/23088
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 222,208 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,208) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,208) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(222,208) = ( 222 × 208 ) / 2
LCM(222,208) = 46176 / 2
LCM(222,208) = 23088
