Lets's calculate LCM of 146,131
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19126
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19126
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 409/146,874/131 is 1/19126
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 146,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,131) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(146,131) = ( 146 × 131 ) / 1
LCM(146,131) = 19126 / 1
LCM(146,131) = 19126
