Lets's calculate LCM of 7451,2047
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15252197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/15252197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 372/7451,850/2047 is 2/15252197
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 7451,2047 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7451,2047) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7451,2047) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(7451,2047) = ( 7451 × 2047 ) / 1
LCM(7451,2047) = 15252197 / 1
LCM(7451,2047) = 15252197
