Lets's calculate LCM of 655,974
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 637970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/637970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8510/655,3716/974 is 2/637970
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 655,974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(655,974) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(655,974) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(655,974) = ( 655 × 974 ) / 1
LCM(655,974) = 637970 / 1
LCM(655,974) = 637970
