Lets's calculate LCM of 178,7465
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1328770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1328770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1287/178,4274/7465 is 1/1328770
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 178,7465 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(178,7465) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(178,7465) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(178,7465) = ( 178 × 7465 ) / 1
LCM(178,7465) = 1328770 / 1
LCM(178,7465) = 1328770
