Lets's calculate LCM of 161,9371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1508731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1508731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8372/161,9382/9371 is 2/1508731
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 161,9371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(161,9371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(161,9371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(161,9371) = ( 161 × 9371 ) / 1
LCM(161,9371) = 1508731 / 1
LCM(161,9371) = 1508731
