Lets's calculate LCM of 703,274
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 192622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/192622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1596/703,5373/274 is 3/192622
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 703,274 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,274) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,274) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,274) = ( 703 × 274 ) / 1
LCM(703,274) = 192622 / 1
LCM(703,274) = 192622
