Lets's calculate LCM of 72,505

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36360

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36360

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 215/72,486/505 is 1/36360

Least Common Multiple of 72,505 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 72,505 with GCF Formula

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 72,505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(72,505) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(72,505) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(72,505) = ( 72 × 505 ) / 1

LCM(72,505) = 36360 / 1

LCM(72,505) = 36360
