So the greatest common factor 200,784 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 424,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 397288
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/397288
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 200/424,784/937 is 8/397288
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 424,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(424,937) = ( 424 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(424,937) = 397288 / 1
LCM(424,937) = 397288
