Lets's calculate LCM of 287,255
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 73185
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/73185
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9745/287,9530/255 is 5/73185
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 287,255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,255) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,255) = ( 287 × 255 ) / 1
LCM(287,255) = 73185 / 1
LCM(287,255) = 73185
