Lets's calculate LCM of 747,2536
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1894392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1894392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7317/747,4255/2536 is 1/1894392
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 747,2536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(747,2536) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(747,2536) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(747,2536) = ( 747 × 2536 ) / 1
LCM(747,2536) = 1894392 / 1
LCM(747,2536) = 1894392
