Lets's calculate LCM of 216,895
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/193320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7872/216,5555/895 is 1/193320
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 216,895 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(216,895) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(216,895) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(216,895) = ( 216 × 895 ) / 1
LCM(216,895) = 193320 / 1
LCM(216,895) = 193320
