Lets's calculate LCM of 837,9781
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8186697
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8186697
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7738/837,4308/9781 is 2/8186697
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 837,9781 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,9781) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,9781) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,9781) = ( 837 × 9781 ) / 1
LCM(837,9781) = 8186697 / 1
LCM(837,9781) = 8186697
