Lets's calculate LCM of 715,908
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 649220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/649220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6391/715,6996/908 is 11/649220
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 715,908 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,908) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,908) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(715,908) = ( 715 × 908 ) / 1
LCM(715,908) = 649220 / 1
LCM(715,908) = 649220
