So the greatest common factor 8241,2337 is 123.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,3793
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2412348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 123/2412348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8241/636,2337/3793 is 123/2412348
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 636,3793 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,3793) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,3793) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,3793) = ( 636 × 3793 ) / 1
LCM(636,3793) = 2412348 / 1
LCM(636,3793) = 2412348
