Lets's calculate LCM of 937,5318
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4982966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4982966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2421/937,7394/5318 is 1/4982966
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 937,5318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(937,5318) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(937,5318) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(937,5318) = ( 937 × 5318 ) / 1
LCM(937,5318) = 4982966 / 1
LCM(937,5318) = 4982966
