Lets's calculate LCM of 373,226
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 84298
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/84298
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3785/373,8625/226 is 5/84298
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 373,226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,226) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,226) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,226) = ( 373 × 226 ) / 1
LCM(373,226) = 84298 / 1
LCM(373,226) = 84298
