Lets's calculate LCM of 26,2755
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/71630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 144/26,699/2755 is 3/71630
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 26,2755 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,2755) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,2755) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,2755) = ( 26 × 2755 ) / 1
LCM(26,2755) = 71630 / 1
LCM(26,2755) = 71630
