Lets's calculate LCM of 720,5778
2 | 720, 5778 |
3 | 360, 2889 |
3 | 120, 963 |
40, 321 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 40 x 321 = 231120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/231120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7365/720,8744/5778 is 1/231120
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 720,5778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(720,5778) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(720,5778) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(720,5778) = ( 720 × 5778 ) / 18
LCM(720,5778) = 4160160 / 18
LCM(720,5778) = 231120
