Lets's calculate LCM of 144,8159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1174896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1174896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1329/144,2846/8159 is 1/1174896
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 144,8159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,8159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,8159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(144,8159) = ( 144 × 8159 ) / 1
LCM(144,8159) = 1174896 / 1
LCM(144,8159) = 1174896
