Lets's calculate LCM of 537,2878
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1545486
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1545486
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9202/537,7170/2878 is 2/1545486
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 537,2878 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,2878) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,2878) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(537,2878) = ( 537 × 2878 ) / 1
LCM(537,2878) = 1545486 / 1
LCM(537,2878) = 1545486
