Lets's calculate LCM of 937,2121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1987377
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1987377
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2940/937,5483/2121 is 1/1987377
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 937,2121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(937,2121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(937,2121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(937,2121) = ( 937 × 2121 ) / 1
LCM(937,2121) = 1987377 / 1
LCM(937,2121) = 1987377
