Lets's calculate LCM of 465,741
| 3 | 465, 741 |
| 155, 247 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 155 x 247 = 114855
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/114855
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1937/465,6501/741 is 1/114855
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 465,741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,741) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,741) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(465,741) = ( 465 × 741 ) / 3
LCM(465,741) = 344565 / 3
LCM(465,741) = 114855
