Lets's calculate LCM of 721,260
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 187460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/187460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8699/721,2794/260 is 1/187460
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 721,260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,260) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,260) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(721,260) = ( 721 × 260 ) / 1
LCM(721,260) = 187460 / 1
LCM(721,260) = 187460
