Lets's calculate LCM of 125,625
5 | 125, 625 |
5 | 25, 125 |
5 | 5, 25 |
1, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 5 = 625
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/625
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 520/125,928/625 is 8/625
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 125,625 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(125,625) = 125
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(125,625) x common factors =125 x 1 = 125
LCM(125,625) = ( 125 × 625 ) / 125
LCM(125,625) = 78125 / 125
LCM(125,625) = 625
