Lets's calculate LCM of 251,732
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 183732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/183732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9085/251,7240/732 is 5/183732
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 251,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,732) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,732) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,732) = ( 251 × 732 ) / 1
LCM(251,732) = 183732 / 1
LCM(251,732) = 183732
