Lets's calculate LCM of 995,7245
5 | 995, 7245 |
199, 1449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 199 x 1449 = 1441755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1441755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2786/995,4624/7245 is 2/1441755
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 995,7245 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(995,7245) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(995,7245) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(995,7245) = ( 995 × 7245 ) / 5
LCM(995,7245) = 7208775 / 5
LCM(995,7245) = 1441755
