Lets's calculate LCM of 625,608
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 380000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 37/380000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 518/625,999/608 is 37/380000
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 625,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(625,608) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(625,608) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(625,608) = ( 625 × 608 ) / 1
LCM(625,608) = 380000 / 1
LCM(625,608) = 380000
