Lets's calculate LCM of 873,1534
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1339182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1339182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7864/873,2518/1534 is 2/1339182
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 873,1534 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,1534) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,1534) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,1534) = ( 873 × 1534 ) / 1
LCM(873,1534) = 1339182 / 1
LCM(873,1534) = 1339182
