Lets's calculate LCM of 542,2137
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1158254
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1158254
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1428/542,9749/2137 is 1/1158254
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 542,2137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,2137) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,2137) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(542,2137) = ( 542 × 2137 ) / 1
LCM(542,2137) = 1158254 / 1
LCM(542,2137) = 1158254
