Lets's calculate LCM of 200,3734
2 | 200, 3734 |
100, 1867 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 100 x 1867 = 373400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/373400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2572/200,8357/3734 is 1/373400
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 200,3734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(200,3734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(200,3734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(200,3734) = ( 200 × 3734 ) / 2
LCM(200,3734) = 746800 / 2
LCM(200,3734) = 373400
