Lets's calculate LCM of 187,3500
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 654500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/654500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8760/187,7315/3500 is 5/654500
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 187,3500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,3500) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,3500) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,3500) = ( 187 × 3500 ) / 1
LCM(187,3500) = 654500 / 1
LCM(187,3500) = 654500
