Lets's calculate LCM of 337,223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75151
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/75151
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 126/337,916/223 is 2/75151
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 337,223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(337,223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(337,223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(337,223) = ( 337 × 223 ) / 1
LCM(337,223) = 75151 / 1
LCM(337,223) = 75151
