Lets's calculate LCM of 475,5831
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2769725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/2769725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7317/475,3582/5831 is 9/2769725
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 475,5831 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(475,5831) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(475,5831) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(475,5831) = ( 475 × 5831 ) / 1
LCM(475,5831) = 2769725 / 1
LCM(475,5831) = 2769725
