Lets's calculate LCM of 796,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 745852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/745852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3644/796,3784/937 is 4/745852
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 796,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(796,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(796,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(796,937) = ( 796 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(796,937) = 745852 / 1
LCM(796,937) = 745852
