Lets's calculate LCM of 360,724
2 | 360, 724 |
2 | 180, 362 |
90, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 90 x 181 = 65160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/65160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 899/360,165/724 is 1/65160
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 360,724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,724) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,724) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(360,724) = ( 360 × 724 ) / 4
LCM(360,724) = 260640 / 4
LCM(360,724) = 65160
