Lets's calculate LCM of 538,7383
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3972054
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3972054
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5265/538,6338/7383 is 1/3972054
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 538,7383 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,7383) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,7383) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,7383) = ( 538 × 7383 ) / 1
LCM(538,7383) = 3972054 / 1
LCM(538,7383) = 3972054
