Lets's calculate LCM of 72,765
| 3 | 72, 765 |
| 3 | 24, 255 |
| 8, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 8 x 85 = 6120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2726/72,6266/765 is 2/6120
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 72,765 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,765) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,765) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(72,765) = ( 72 × 765 ) / 9
LCM(72,765) = 55080 / 9
LCM(72,765) = 6120
