We found the factors 3837,5010 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3837,5010 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 757,4372
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3309604
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/3309604
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3837/757,5010/4372 is 3/3309604
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 757,4372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(757,4372) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(757,4372) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(757,4372) = ( 757 × 4372 ) / 1
LCM(757,4372) = 3309604 / 1
LCM(757,4372) = 3309604
