Lets's calculate LCM of 351,9542
13 | 351, 9542 |
27, 734 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 27 x 734 = 257634
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/257634
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 731/351,2725/9542 is 1/257634
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 351,9542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(351,9542) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(351,9542) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(351,9542) = ( 351 × 9542 ) / 13
LCM(351,9542) = 3349242 / 13
LCM(351,9542) = 257634
