So the greatest common factor 146,712 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 113,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/67574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 146/113,712/598 is 2/67574
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 113,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(113,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(113,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(113,598) = ( 113 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(113,598) = 67574 / 1
LCM(113,598) = 67574
