Lets's calculate LCM of 874,2151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1879974
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1879974
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5198/874,6743/2151 is 1/1879974
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 874,2151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(874,2151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(874,2151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(874,2151) = ( 874 × 2151 ) / 1
LCM(874,2151) = 1879974 / 1
LCM(874,2151) = 1879974
