Lets's calculate LCM of 73,375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27375
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/27375
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5085/73,3280/375 is 5/27375
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 73,375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,375) = ( 73 × 375 ) / 1
LCM(73,375) = 27375 / 1
LCM(73,375) = 27375
