So the greatest common factor 955,3608 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 737,2135
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1573495
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1573495
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 955/737,3608/2135 is 1/1573495
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 737,2135 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(737,2135) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(737,2135) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(737,2135) = ( 737 × 2135 ) / 1
LCM(737,2135) = 1573495 / 1
LCM(737,2135) = 1573495
