So the greatest common factor 5550,7425 is 75.
Lets's calculate LCM of 996,5360
2 | 996, 5360 |
2 | 498, 2680 |
249, 1340 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 249 x 1340 = 1334640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 75/1334640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5550/996,7425/5360 is 75/1334640
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 996,5360 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,5360) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,5360) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(996,5360) = ( 996 × 5360 ) / 4
LCM(996,5360) = 5338560 / 4
LCM(996,5360) = 1334640
