So the greatest common factor 2406,7282 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 250,286
2 | 250, 286 |
125, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 125 x 143 = 35750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/35750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2406/250,7282/286 is 2/35750
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 250,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(250,286) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(250,286) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(250,286) = ( 250 × 286 ) / 2
LCM(250,286) = 71500 / 2
LCM(250,286) = 35750
