Lets's calculate LCM of 373,3574
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1333102
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1333102
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6371/373,8871/3574 is 1/1333102
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 373,3574 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,3574) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,3574) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,3574) = ( 373 × 3574 ) / 1
LCM(373,3574) = 1333102 / 1
LCM(373,3574) = 1333102
