Lets's calculate LCM of 524,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 129428
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/129428
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8755/524,2515/247 is 5/129428
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 524,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(524,247) = ( 524 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(524,247) = 129428 / 1
LCM(524,247) = 129428
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
