Lets's calculate LCM of 199,337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67063
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67063
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1655/199,4612/337 is 1/67063
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 199,337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(199,337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(199,337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(199,337) = ( 199 × 337 ) / 1
LCM(199,337) = 67063 / 1
LCM(199,337) = 67063
