So the greatest common factor 3224,7742 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 722,2650
2 | 722, 2650 |
361, 1325 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 361 x 1325 = 956650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/956650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3224/722,7742/2650 is 2/956650
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 722,2650 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,2650) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,2650) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(722,2650) = ( 722 × 2650 ) / 2
LCM(722,2650) = 1913300 / 2
LCM(722,2650) = 956650
