Lets's calculate LCM of 625,4232
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2645000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2645000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7200/625,3338/4232 is 2/2645000
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 625,4232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(625,4232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(625,4232) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(625,4232) = ( 625 × 4232 ) / 1
LCM(625,4232) = 2645000 / 1
LCM(625,4232) = 2645000
