Lets's calculate LCM of 715,941
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 672815
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/672815
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 782/715,338/941 is 2/672815
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 715,941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,941) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(715,941) = ( 715 × 941 ) / 1
LCM(715,941) = 672815 / 1
LCM(715,941) = 672815
