Lets's calculate LCM of 49,975
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47775
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/47775
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2646/49,2555/975 is 7/47775
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 49,975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,975) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,975) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,975) = ( 49 × 975 ) / 1
LCM(49,975) = 47775 / 1
LCM(49,975) = 47775
