Lets's calculate LCM of 837,475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 397575
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/397575
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8360/837,5516/475 is 4/397575
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 837,475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(837,475) = ( 837 × 475 ) / 1
LCM(837,475) = 397575 / 1
LCM(837,475) = 397575
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
