Lets's calculate LCM of 721,8976
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6471696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/6471696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3635/721,3330/8976 is 5/6471696
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 721,8976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,8976) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,8976) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(721,8976) = ( 721 × 8976 ) / 1
LCM(721,8976) = 6471696 / 1
LCM(721,8976) = 6471696
