Lets's calculate LCM of 527,2918
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1537786
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1537786
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9468/527,6442/2918 is 2/1537786
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 527,2918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(527,2918) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(527,2918) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(527,2918) = ( 527 × 2918 ) / 1
LCM(527,2918) = 1537786 / 1
LCM(527,2918) = 1537786
