Lets's calculate LCM of 625,8632
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5395000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5395000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4256/625,4734/8632 is 2/5395000
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 625,8632 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(625,8632) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(625,8632) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(625,8632) = ( 625 × 8632 ) / 1
LCM(625,8632) = 5395000 / 1
LCM(625,8632) = 5395000
