Lets's calculate LCM of 896,149
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/133504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1026/896,7426/149 is 2/133504
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 896,149 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(896,149) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(896,149) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(896,149) = ( 896 × 149 ) / 1
LCM(896,149) = 133504 / 1
LCM(896,149) = 133504
