Lets's calculate LCM of 307,7443
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2285001
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/2285001
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8540/307,7100/7443 is 20/2285001
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 307,7443 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(307,7443) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(307,7443) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(307,7443) = ( 307 × 7443 ) / 1
LCM(307,7443) = 2285001 / 1
LCM(307,7443) = 2285001
