So the greatest common factor 7376,3410 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 400,8950
2 | 400, 8950 |
5 | 200, 4475 |
5 | 40, 895 |
8, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 5 x 8 x 179 = 71600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/71600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7376/400,3410/8950 is 2/71600
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 400,8950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(400,8950) = 50
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(400,8950) x common factors =50 x 1 = 50
LCM(400,8950) = ( 400 × 8950 ) / 50
LCM(400,8950) = 3580000 / 50
LCM(400,8950) = 71600
