Lets's calculate LCM of 718,1565
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1123670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/1123670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3550/718,9220/1565 is 10/1123670
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 718,1565 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,1565) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,1565) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(718,1565) = ( 718 × 1565 ) / 1
LCM(718,1565) = 1123670 / 1
LCM(718,1565) = 1123670
