Lets's calculate LCM of 100,9974
2 | 100, 9974 |
50, 4987 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 50 x 4987 = 498700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/498700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7185/100,2705/9974 is 5/498700
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 100,9974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(100,9974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(100,9974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(100,9974) = ( 100 × 9974 ) / 2
LCM(100,9974) = 997400 / 2
LCM(100,9974) = 498700
