Lets's calculate LCM of 72,711
| 3 | 72, 711 |
| 3 | 24, 237 |
| 8, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 8 x 79 = 5688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2824/72,8255/711 is 1/5688
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 72,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,711) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,711) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(72,711) = ( 72 × 711 ) / 9
LCM(72,711) = 51192 / 9
LCM(72,711) = 5688
