Lets's calculate LCM of 361,2373
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 856653
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/856653
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9231/361,7164/2373 is 3/856653
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 361,2373 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,2373) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,2373) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,2373) = ( 361 × 2373 ) / 1
LCM(361,2373) = 856653 / 1
LCM(361,2373) = 856653
