Lets's calculate LCM of 728,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 190008
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/190008
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1080/728,9591/261 is 3/190008
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 728,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(728,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(728,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(728,261) = ( 728 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(728,261) = 190008 / 1
LCM(728,261) = 190008
