Lets's calculate LCM of 277,619
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 171463
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/171463
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 140/277,4297/619 is 1/171463
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 277,619 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,619) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,619) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,619) = ( 277 × 619 ) / 1
LCM(277,619) = 171463 / 1
LCM(277,619) = 171463
