Lets's calculate LCM of 199,7142
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1421258
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1421258
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2505/199,6657/7142 is 3/1421258
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 199,7142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(199,7142) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(199,7142) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(199,7142) = ( 199 × 7142 ) / 1
LCM(199,7142) = 1421258 / 1
LCM(199,7142) = 1421258
