Lets's calculate LCM of 372,7973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2965956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2965956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6307/372,3759/7973 is 7/2965956
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 372,7973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,7973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,7973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(372,7973) = ( 372 × 7973 ) / 1
LCM(372,7973) = 2965956 / 1
LCM(372,7973) = 2965956
