Lets's calculate LCM of 729,750
3 | 729, 750 |
243, 250 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 243 x 250 = 182250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/182250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7412/729,5662/750 is 2/182250
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 729,750 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(729,750) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(729,750) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(729,750) = ( 729 × 750 ) / 3
LCM(729,750) = 546750 / 3
LCM(729,750) = 182250
