Lets's calculate LCM of 997,3616
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3605152
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3605152
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5200/997,3485/3616 is 5/3605152
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 997,3616 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,3616) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,3616) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,3616) = ( 997 × 3616 ) / 1
LCM(997,3616) = 3605152 / 1
LCM(997,3616) = 3605152
