Lets's calculate LCM of 481,1537
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 739297
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/739297
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1874/481,9892/1537 is 2/739297
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 481,1537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(481,1537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(481,1537) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(481,1537) = ( 481 × 1537 ) / 1
LCM(481,1537) = 739297 / 1
LCM(481,1537) = 739297
