Lets's calculate LCM of 786,655
| 131 | 786, 655 |
| 6, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 131 x 6 x 5 = 3930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 708/786,2283/655 is 3/3930
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 786,655 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,655) = 131
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,655) x common factors =131 x 1 = 131
LCM(786,655) = ( 786 × 655 ) / 131
LCM(786,655) = 514830 / 131
LCM(786,655) = 3930
