Lets's calculate LCM of 25,845
5 | 25, 845 |
5, 169 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 5 x 169 = 4225
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4225
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3244/25,2456/845 is 4/4225
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 25,845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,845) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,845) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(25,845) = ( 25 × 845 ) / 5
LCM(25,845) = 21125 / 5
LCM(25,845) = 4225
