Lets's calculate LCM of 374,5073
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1897302
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1897302
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 408/374,5835/5073 is 3/1897302
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 374,5073 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(374,5073) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(374,5073) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(374,5073) = ( 374 × 5073 ) / 1
LCM(374,5073) = 1897302 / 1
LCM(374,5073) = 1897302
