Lets's calculate LCM of 187,7495
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1401565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1401565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4848/187,2234/7495 is 2/1401565
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 187,7495 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,7495) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,7495) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,7495) = ( 187 × 7495 ) / 1
LCM(187,7495) = 1401565 / 1
LCM(187,7495) = 1401565
