Lets's calculate LCM of 725,145
5 | 725, 145 |
29 | 145, 29 |
5, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 29 x 5 x 1 = 725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8913/725,1937/145 is 1/725
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 725,145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(725,145) = 145
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(725,145) x common factors =145 x 1 = 145
LCM(725,145) = ( 725 × 145 ) / 145
LCM(725,145) = 105125 / 145
LCM(725,145) = 725
