So the greatest common factor 8330,3760 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 727,972
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 706644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/706644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8330/727,3760/972 is 10/706644
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 727,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(727,972) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(727,972) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(727,972) = ( 727 × 972 ) / 1
LCM(727,972) = 706644 / 1
LCM(727,972) = 706644
