So the greatest common factor 8437,1456 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,905
5 | 25, 905 |
5, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 5 x 181 = 4525
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/4525
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8437/25,1456/905 is 13/4525
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 25,905 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,905) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,905) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(25,905) = ( 25 × 905 ) / 5
LCM(25,905) = 22625 / 5
LCM(25,905) = 4525
