Lets's calculate LCM of 374,5443
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2035682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2035682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7191/374,6838/5443 is 1/2035682
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 374,5443 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(374,5443) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(374,5443) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(374,5443) = ( 374 × 5443 ) / 1
LCM(374,5443) = 2035682 / 1
LCM(374,5443) = 2035682
