Lets's calculate LCM of 723,523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 378129
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/378129
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7360/723,3702/523 is 2/378129
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 723,523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(723,523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(723,523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(723,523) = ( 723 × 523 ) / 1
LCM(723,523) = 378129 / 1
LCM(723,523) = 378129
