Lets's calculate LCM of 843,7165
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6040095
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 83/6040095
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7221/843,1826/7165 is 83/6040095
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 843,7165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,7165) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(843,7165) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(843,7165) = ( 843 × 7165 ) / 1
LCM(843,7165) = 6040095 / 1
LCM(843,7165) = 6040095
