So the greatest common factor 2425,5050 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,506
2 | 62, 506 |
31, 253 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 253 = 15686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/15686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2425/62,5050/506 is 25/15686
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 62,506 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,506) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,506) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(62,506) = ( 62 × 506 ) / 2
LCM(62,506) = 31372 / 2
LCM(62,506) = 15686
