Lets's calculate LCM of 157,826
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 129682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/129682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2855/157,8271/826 is 1/129682
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 157,826 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,826) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,826) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,826) = ( 157 × 826 ) / 1
LCM(157,826) = 129682 / 1
LCM(157,826) = 129682
