Lets's calculate LCM of 737,9522
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7017714
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/7017714
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8358/737,5382/9522 is 6/7017714
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 737,9522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,9522) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,9522) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,9522) = ( 737 × 9522 ) / 1
LCM(737,9522) = 7017714 / 1
LCM(737,9522) = 7017714
