Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5710/147,6960/2286 is 10/112014
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 147,2286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(147,2286) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(147,2286) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(147,2286) = ( 147 × 2286 ) / 3
LCM(147,2286) = 336042 / 3
LCM(147,2286) = 112014
