Lets's calculate LCM of 175,8981
7 | 175, 8981 |
25, 1283 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 25 x 1283 = 224525
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 43/224525
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7224/175,9073/8981 is 43/224525
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 175,8981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(175,8981) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(175,8981) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(175,8981) = ( 175 × 8981 ) / 7
LCM(175,8981) = 1571675 / 7
LCM(175,8981) = 224525
