Lets's calculate LCM of 251,774
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/194274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 825/251,7131/774 is 3/194274
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 251,774 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,774) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,774) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,774) = ( 251 × 774 ) / 1
LCM(251,774) = 194274 / 1
LCM(251,774) = 194274
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
