Lets's calculate LCM of 943,7396
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6974428
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 126/6974428
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1008/943,7938/7396 is 126/6974428
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 943,7396 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(943,7396) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(943,7396) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(943,7396) = ( 943 × 7396 ) / 1
LCM(943,7396) = 6974428 / 1
LCM(943,7396) = 6974428
