Lets's calculate LCM of 756,911
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 688716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/688716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 314/756,9742/911 is 2/688716
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 756,911 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,911) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,911) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(756,911) = ( 756 × 911 ) / 1
LCM(756,911) = 688716 / 1
LCM(756,911) = 688716
