Lets's calculate LCM of 312,8345
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2603640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2603640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8721/312,7135/8345 is 1/2603640
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 312,8345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(312,8345) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(312,8345) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(312,8345) = ( 312 × 8345 ) / 1
LCM(312,8345) = 2603640 / 1
LCM(312,8345) = 2603640
