So the greatest common factor 4975,7935 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,404
2 | 24, 404 |
2 | 12, 202 |
6, 101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 6 x 101 = 2424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4975/24,7935/404 is 5/2424
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 24,404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,404) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,404) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(24,404) = ( 24 × 404 ) / 4
LCM(24,404) = 9696 / 4
LCM(24,404) = 2424
