Lets's calculate LCM of 885,184
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/162840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 146/885,392/184 is 2/162840
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 885,184 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(885,184) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(885,184) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(885,184) = ( 885 × 184 ) / 1
LCM(885,184) = 162840 / 1
LCM(885,184) = 162840
