Lets's calculate LCM of 891,720
3 | 891, 720 |
3 | 297, 240 |
99, 80 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 99 x 80 = 71280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/71280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 889/891,8211/720 is 7/71280
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 891,720 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(891,720) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(891,720) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(891,720) = ( 891 × 720 ) / 9
LCM(891,720) = 641520 / 9
LCM(891,720) = 71280
