So the greatest common factor 7318,1962 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 643,6975
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4484925
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4484925
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7318/643,1962/6975 is 2/4484925
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 643,6975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,6975) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,6975) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,6975) = ( 643 × 6975 ) / 1
LCM(643,6975) = 4484925 / 1
LCM(643,6975) = 4484925
