Lets's calculate LCM of 835,7178
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5993630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5993630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9426/835,3622/7178 is 2/5993630
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 835,7178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(835,7178) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(835,7178) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(835,7178) = ( 835 × 7178 ) / 1
LCM(835,7178) = 5993630 / 1
LCM(835,7178) = 5993630
