Lets's calculate LCM of 364,3775
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1374100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1374100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8946/364,3914/3775 is 2/1374100
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 364,3775 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,3775) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,3775) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(364,3775) = ( 364 × 3775 ) / 1
LCM(364,3775) = 1374100 / 1
LCM(364,3775) = 1374100
