So the greatest common factor 808,516 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 137,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 114669
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/114669
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 808/137,516/837 is 4/114669
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 137,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(137,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(137,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(137,837) = ( 137 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(137,837) = 114669 / 1
LCM(137,837) = 114669
