Best Answer

Those are commonly used for working with fractions. You need the least common multiple to find a common denominator, for adding or subtracting fractions. And after doing some manipulations with fractions, you need the greatest common factor to simplify the fractions.


Now, whether this is sufficiently "real-life" for you, is another issue. Depending on the career you choose, you many need to work with fractions on a daily basis, or you may hardly ever need them.
