Lets's calculate LCM of 189,3763
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 711207
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/711207
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8437/189,5743/3763 is 1/711207
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 189,3763 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,3763) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,3763) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(189,3763) = ( 189 × 3763 ) / 1
LCM(189,3763) = 711207 / 1
LCM(189,3763) = 711207
