Lets's calculate LCM of 550,2496
2 | 550, 2496 |
275, 1248 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 1248 = 686400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/686400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 949/550,5777/2496 is 1/686400
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 550,2496 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,2496) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,2496) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(550,2496) = ( 550 × 2496 ) / 2
LCM(550,2496) = 1372800 / 2
LCM(550,2496) = 686400
