Lets's calculate LCM of 142,2649
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 376158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/376158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2897/142,8252/2649 is 1/376158
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 142,2649 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(142,2649) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(142,2649) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(142,2649) = ( 142 × 2649 ) / 1
LCM(142,2649) = 376158 / 1
LCM(142,2649) = 376158
