So the greatest common factor 628,140 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 139,994
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 138166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/138166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 628/139,140/994 is 4/138166
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 139,994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(139,994) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(139,994) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(139,994) = ( 139 × 994 ) / 1
LCM(139,994) = 138166 / 1
LCM(139,994) = 138166
