So the greatest common factor 425,714 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,412
2 | 24, 412 |
2 | 12, 206 |
6, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 6 x 103 = 2472
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/2472
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 425/24,714/412 is 17/2472
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 24,412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,412) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,412) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(24,412) = ( 24 × 412 ) / 4
LCM(24,412) = 9888 / 4
LCM(24,412) = 2472
