Lets's calculate LCM of 637,885
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 563745
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/563745
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 860/637,749/885 is 1/563745
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 637,885 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,885) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,885) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,885) = ( 637 × 885 ) / 1
LCM(637,885) = 563745 / 1
LCM(637,885) = 563745
