Lets's calculate LCM of 187,205
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 38335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/38335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 835/187,8374/205 is 1/38335
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 187,205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,205) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,205) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,205) = ( 187 × 205 ) / 1
LCM(187,205) = 38335 / 1
LCM(187,205) = 38335
