Lets's calculate LCM of 378,1187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 448686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/448686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8379/378,1541/1187 is 1/448686
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 378,1187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(378,1187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(378,1187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(378,1187) = ( 378 × 1187 ) / 1
LCM(378,1187) = 448686 / 1
LCM(378,1187) = 448686
