Lets's calculate LCM of 745,7245
5 | 745, 7245 |
149, 1449 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 149 x 1449 = 1079505
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1079505
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5038/745,1459/7245 is 1/1079505
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 745,7245 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(745,7245) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(745,7245) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(745,7245) = ( 745 × 7245 ) / 5
LCM(745,7245) = 5397525 / 5
LCM(745,7245) = 1079505
