Lets's calculate LCM of 149,720
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 107280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/107280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 885/149,4886/720 is 1/107280
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 149,720 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(149,720) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(149,720) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(149,720) = ( 149 × 720 ) / 1
LCM(149,720) = 107280 / 1
LCM(149,720) = 107280
