Answer

LCM of 31 and 37 is
1,147

First common multiples: 1,147; 2,294; 3,441; …

1,147 is divisible by both: 1,147 ÷ 31 = 37; 1,147 ÷ 37 = 31 — and 37 and 31 share no factor but 1, so no smaller number is. As a common denominator: multiply the top and bottom of x/31 by 37 and of y/37 by 31.

31 and 37 are coprime (GCF = 1), so their LCM is simply the product: 31 × 37 = 1,147.
