Lets's calculate LCM of 181,7432
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1345192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1345192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7918/181,8870/7432 is 2/1345192
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 181,7432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(181,7432) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(181,7432) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(181,7432) = ( 181 × 7432 ) / 1
LCM(181,7432) = 1345192 / 1
LCM(181,7432) = 1345192
