Lets's calculate LCM of 144,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 139248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/139248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4514/144,3596/967 is 2/139248
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 144,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(144,967) = ( 144 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(144,967) = 139248 / 1
LCM(144,967) = 139248
