So the greatest common factor 1445,1617 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 143,446
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/63778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1445/143,1617/446 is 1/63778
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 143,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(143,446) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(143,446) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(143,446) = ( 143 × 446 ) / 1
LCM(143,446) = 63778 / 1
LCM(143,446) = 63778
