Lets's calculate LCM of 637,2518
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1603966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1603966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7852/637,3470/2518 is 2/1603966
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 637,2518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,2518) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,2518) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,2518) = ( 637 × 2518 ) / 1
LCM(637,2518) = 1603966 / 1
LCM(637,2518) = 1603966
