So the greatest common factor 8437,2346 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 648,1541
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 998568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/998568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8437/648,2346/1541 is 1/998568
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 648,1541 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(648,1541) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(648,1541) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(648,1541) = ( 648 × 1541 ) / 1
LCM(648,1541) = 998568 / 1
LCM(648,1541) = 998568
