So the greatest common factor 1800,7175 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 486,286
2 | 486, 286 |
243, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 243 x 143 = 69498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/69498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1800/486,7175/286 is 25/69498
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 486,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,286) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,286) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(486,286) = ( 486 × 286 ) / 2
LCM(486,286) = 138996 / 2
LCM(486,286) = 69498
