Lets's calculate LCM of 120,6749
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 809880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/809880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 768/120,3279/6749 is 3/809880
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 120,6749 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(120,6749) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(120,6749) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(120,6749) = ( 120 × 6749 ) / 1
LCM(120,6749) = 809880 / 1
LCM(120,6749) = 809880
