Lets's calculate LCM of 181,7855
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1421755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1421755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6961/181,1538/7855 is 1/1421755
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 181,7855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(181,7855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(181,7855) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(181,7855) = ( 181 × 7855 ) / 1
LCM(181,7855) = 1421755 / 1
LCM(181,7855) = 1421755
