So the greatest common factor 625,480 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 720,886
2 | 720, 886 |
360, 443 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 360 x 443 = 318960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/318960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 625/720,480/886 is 5/318960
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 720,886 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(720,886) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(720,886) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(720,886) = ( 720 × 886 ) / 2
LCM(720,886) = 637920 / 2
LCM(720,886) = 318960
