Lets's calculate LCM of 727,5540
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4027580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4027580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2173/727,1560/5540 is 1/4027580
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 727,5540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,5540) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,5540) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,5540) = ( 727 × 5540 ) / 1
LCM(727,5540) = 4027580 / 1
LCM(727,5540) = 4027580
