Lets's calculate LCM of 524,3543
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1856532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1856532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7362/524,1348/3543 is 2/1856532
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 524,3543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,3543) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,3543) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(524,3543) = ( 524 × 3543 ) / 1
LCM(524,3543) = 1856532 / 1
LCM(524,3543) = 1856532
