Lets's calculate LCM of 743,3867
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2873181
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2873181
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4389/743,5037/3867 is 3/2873181
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 743,3867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,3867) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,3867) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,3867) = ( 743 × 3867 ) / 1
LCM(743,3867) = 2873181 / 1
LCM(743,3867) = 2873181
