Lets's calculate LCM of 893,7331
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6546583
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/6546583
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1880/893,1740/7331 is 20/6546583
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 893,7331 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(893,7331) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(893,7331) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(893,7331) = ( 893 × 7331 ) / 1
LCM(893,7331) = 6546583 / 1
LCM(893,7331) = 6546583
