Lets's calculate LCM of 675,720
3 | 675, 720 |
3 | 225, 240 |
5 | 75, 80 |
15, 16 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 5 x 15 x 16 = 10800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2646/675,5828/720 is 2/10800
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 675,720 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(675,720) = 45
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(675,720) x common factors =45 x 1 = 45
LCM(675,720) = ( 675 × 720 ) / 45
LCM(675,720) = 486000 / 45
LCM(675,720) = 10800
