Lets's calculate LCM of 442,1843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 814606
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/814606
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7389/442,3681/1843 is 9/814606
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 442,1843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,1843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,1843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(442,1843) = ( 442 × 1843 ) / 1
LCM(442,1843) = 814606 / 1
LCM(442,1843) = 814606
