Lets's calculate LCM of 109,9869
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1075721
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1075721
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 42/109,5165/9869 is 1/1075721
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 109,9869 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(109,9869) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(109,9869) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(109,9869) = ( 109 × 9869 ) / 1
LCM(109,9869) = 1075721 / 1
LCM(109,9869) = 1075721
