Lets's calculate LCM of 637,9141
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5822817
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/5822817
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8676/637,2502/9141 is 18/5822817
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 637,9141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,9141) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,9141) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,9141) = ( 637 × 9141 ) / 1
LCM(637,9141) = 5822817 / 1
LCM(637,9141) = 5822817
