Lets's calculate LCM of 191,3462
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 661242
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/661242
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5148/191,1159/3462 is 1/661242
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 191,3462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(191,3462) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(191,3462) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(191,3462) = ( 191 × 3462 ) / 1
LCM(191,3462) = 661242 / 1
LCM(191,3462) = 661242
