Lets's calculate LCM of 25,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5675
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/5675
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8468/25,6308/227 is 4/5675
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 25,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(25,227) = ( 25 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(25,227) = 5675 / 1
LCM(25,227) = 5675
