Lets's calculate LCM of 25,395
5 | 25, 395 |
5, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 5 x 79 = 1975
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1975
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9040/25,4468/395 is 4/1975
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 25,395 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,395) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,395) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(25,395) = ( 25 × 395 ) / 5
LCM(25,395) = 9875 / 5
LCM(25,395) = 1975
