Lets's calculate LCM of 724,2638
2 | 724, 2638 |
362, 1319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 362 x 1319 = 954956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/954956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4265/724,5250/2638 is 5/954956
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 724,2638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(724,2638) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(724,2638) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(724,2638) = ( 724 × 2638 ) / 2
LCM(724,2638) = 1909912 / 2
LCM(724,2638) = 954956
