So the greatest common factor 7225,3600 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 517,778
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 402226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/402226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7225/517,3600/778 is 25/402226
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 517,778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,778) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,778) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,778) = ( 517 × 778 ) / 1
LCM(517,778) = 402226 / 1
LCM(517,778) = 402226
