Lets's calculate LCM of 802,7945
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6371890
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6371890
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7287/802,2637/7945 is 3/6371890
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 802,7945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(802,7945) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(802,7945) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(802,7945) = ( 802 × 7945 ) / 1
LCM(802,7945) = 6371890 / 1
LCM(802,7945) = 6371890
