Lets's calculate LCM of 225,4931
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1109475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1109475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 816/225,3987/4931 is 3/1109475
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 225,4931 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(225,4931) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(225,4931) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(225,4931) = ( 225 × 4931 ) / 1
LCM(225,4931) = 1109475 / 1
LCM(225,4931) = 1109475
