Lets's calculate LCM of 740,8561
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6335140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/6335140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4040/740,2815/8561 is 5/6335140
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 740,8561 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(740,8561) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(740,8561) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(740,8561) = ( 740 × 8561 ) / 1
LCM(740,8561) = 6335140 / 1
LCM(740,8561) = 6335140
