Lets's calculate LCM of 143,7296
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1043328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1043328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1478/143,4850/7296 is 2/1043328
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 143,7296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(143,7296) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(143,7296) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(143,7296) = ( 143 × 7296 ) / 1
LCM(143,7296) = 1043328 / 1
LCM(143,7296) = 1043328
