Lets's calculate LCM of 332,537
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/178284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7785/332,7902/537 is 9/178284
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 332,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,537) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,537) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,537) = ( 332 × 537 ) / 1
LCM(332,537) = 178284 / 1
LCM(332,537) = 178284
