Lets's calculate LCM of 937,8155
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7641235
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/7641235
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4362/937,2158/8155 is 2/7641235
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 937,8155 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(937,8155) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(937,8155) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(937,8155) = ( 937 × 8155 ) / 1
LCM(937,8155) = 7641235 / 1
LCM(937,8155) = 7641235
