Lets's calculate LCM of 837,5501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4604337
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4604337
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2197/837,3273/5501 is 1/4604337
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 837,5501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,5501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,5501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,5501) = ( 837 × 5501 ) / 1
LCM(837,5501) = 4604337 / 1
LCM(837,5501) = 4604337
