Lets's calculate LCM of 725,6858
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4972050
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/4972050
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8512/725,2224/6858 is 16/4972050
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 725,6858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(725,6858) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(725,6858) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(725,6858) = ( 725 × 6858 ) / 1
LCM(725,6858) = 4972050 / 1
LCM(725,6858) = 4972050
