Lets's calculate LCM of 841,7437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6254517
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6254517
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3953/841,9958/7437 is 1/6254517
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 841,7437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(841,7437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(841,7437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(841,7437) = ( 841 × 7437 ) / 1
LCM(841,7437) = 6254517 / 1
LCM(841,7437) = 6254517
