Lets's calculate LCM of 237,7153
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1695261
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1695261
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3624/237,9558/7153 is 6/1695261
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 237,7153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,7153) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,7153) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,7153) = ( 237 × 7153 ) / 1
LCM(237,7153) = 1695261 / 1
LCM(237,7153) = 1695261
