Lets's calculate LCM of 511,755
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 385805
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/385805
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 368/511,896/755 is 16/385805
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 511,755 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(511,755) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(511,755) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(511,755) = ( 511 × 755 ) / 1
LCM(511,755) = 385805 / 1
LCM(511,755) = 385805
