So the greatest common factor 6870,7925 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 724,422
2 | 724, 422 |
362, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 362 x 211 = 152764
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/152764
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6870/724,7925/422 is 5/152764
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 724,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(724,422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(724,422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(724,422) = ( 724 × 422 ) / 2
LCM(724,422) = 305528 / 2
LCM(724,422) = 152764
