Lets's calculate LCM of 543,6937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3766791
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3766791
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1958/543,3995/6937 is 1/3766791
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 543,6937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(543,6937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(543,6937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(543,6937) = ( 543 × 6937 ) / 1
LCM(543,6937) = 3766791 / 1
LCM(543,6937) = 3766791
