Lets's calculate LCM of 736,2111
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1553696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/1553696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1856/736,7816/2111 is 8/1553696
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 736,2111 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(736,2111) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(736,2111) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(736,2111) = ( 736 × 2111 ) / 1
LCM(736,2111) = 1553696 / 1
LCM(736,2111) = 1553696
