Lets's calculate LCM of 743,960
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 713280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/713280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 803/743,496/960 is 1/713280
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 743,960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,960) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,960) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,960) = ( 743 × 960 ) / 1
LCM(743,960) = 713280 / 1
LCM(743,960) = 713280
