Lets's calculate LCM of 597,1555
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 928335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/928335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7343/597,2158/1555 is 1/928335
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 597,1555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(597,1555) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(597,1555) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(597,1555) = ( 597 × 1555 ) / 1
LCM(597,1555) = 928335 / 1
LCM(597,1555) = 928335
