We found the factors 1856,2500 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1856,2500 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 494,1495
13 | 494, 1495 |
38, 115 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 38 x 115 = 56810
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/56810
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1856/494,2500/1495 is 4/56810
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 494,1495 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,1495) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,1495) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(494,1495) = ( 494 × 1495 ) / 13
LCM(494,1495) = 738530 / 13
LCM(494,1495) = 56810
