Lets's calculate LCM of 142,1747
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 248074
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/248074
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4460/142,2208/1747 is 4/248074
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 142,1747 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(142,1747) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(142,1747) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(142,1747) = ( 142 × 1747 ) / 1
LCM(142,1747) = 248074 / 1
LCM(142,1747) = 248074
