Lets's calculate LCM of 867,7814
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6774738
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/6774738
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 240/867,5615/7814 is 5/6774738
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 867,7814 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,7814) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,7814) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(867,7814) = ( 867 × 7814 ) / 1
LCM(867,7814) = 6774738 / 1
LCM(867,7814) = 6774738
