Lets's calculate LCM of 141,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 132117
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/132117
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3318/141,8497/937 is 1/132117
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 141,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(141,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(141,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(141,937) = ( 141 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(141,937) = 132117 / 1
LCM(141,937) = 132117
