Lets's calculate LCM of 722,387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279414
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/279414
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9378/722,9219/387 is 3/279414
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 722,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(722,387) = ( 722 × 387 ) / 1
LCM(722,387) = 279414 / 1
LCM(722,387) = 279414
