Lets's calculate LCM of 736,139
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 102304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/102304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/736,374/139 is 1/102304
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 736,139 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(736,139) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(736,139) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(736,139) = ( 736 × 139 ) / 1
LCM(736,139) = 102304 / 1
LCM(736,139) = 102304
