Lets's calculate LCM of 371,874
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 324254
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/324254
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7226/371,5189/874 is 1/324254
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 371,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,874) = ( 371 × 874 ) / 1
LCM(371,874) = 324254 / 1
LCM(371,874) = 324254
