Lets's calculate LCM of 133,424
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/56392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5328/133,1574/424 is 2/56392
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 133,424 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(133,424) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(133,424) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(133,424) = ( 133 × 424 ) / 1
LCM(133,424) = 56392 / 1
LCM(133,424) = 56392
