Lets's calculate LCM of 727,215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156305
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/156305
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5457/727,7162/215 is 1/156305
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 727,215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,215) = ( 727 × 215 ) / 1
LCM(727,215) = 156305 / 1
LCM(727,215) = 156305
