Lets's calculate LCM of 942,139
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 130938
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/130938
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6108/942,2787/139 is 3/130938
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 942,139 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,139) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,139) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(942,139) = ( 942 × 139 ) / 1
LCM(942,139) = 130938 / 1
LCM(942,139) = 130938
