Lets's calculate LCM of 285,8143
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2320755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2320755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5072/285,1882/8143 is 2/2320755
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 285,8143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(285,8143) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(285,8143) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(285,8143) = ( 285 × 8143 ) / 1
LCM(285,8143) = 2320755 / 1
LCM(285,8143) = 2320755
