Lets's calculate LCM of 908,775
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 703700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/703700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 537/908,8652/775 is 3/703700
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 908,775 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(908,775) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(908,775) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(908,775) = ( 908 × 775 ) / 1
LCM(908,775) = 703700 / 1
LCM(908,775) = 703700
