Lets's calculate LCM of 918,347
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 318546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/318546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7232/918,8477/347 is 1/318546
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 918,347 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,347) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(918,347) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(918,347) = ( 918 × 347 ) / 1
LCM(918,347) = 318546 / 1
LCM(918,347) = 318546
