So the greatest common factor 8037,3954 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,790
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158790
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/158790
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8037/201,3954/790 is 3/158790
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 201,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,790) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,790) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,790) = ( 201 × 790 ) / 1
LCM(201,790) = 158790 / 1
LCM(201,790) = 158790
