So the greatest common factor 3620,6550 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 865,1750
5 | 865, 1750 |
173, 350 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 173 x 350 = 302750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/302750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3620/865,6550/1750 is 10/302750
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 865,1750 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(865,1750) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(865,1750) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(865,1750) = ( 865 × 1750 ) / 5
LCM(865,1750) = 1513750 / 5
LCM(865,1750) = 302750
