Lets's calculate LCM of 850,1248
2 | 850, 1248 |
425, 624 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 425 x 624 = 530400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/530400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7177/850,5985/1248 is 1/530400
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 850,1248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(850,1248) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(850,1248) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(850,1248) = ( 850 × 1248 ) / 2
LCM(850,1248) = 1060800 / 2
LCM(850,1248) = 530400
