Lets's calculate LCM of 157,820
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 128740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/128740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 645/157,5234/820 is 1/128740
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 157,820 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,820) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,820) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,820) = ( 157 × 820 ) / 1
LCM(157,820) = 128740 / 1
LCM(157,820) = 128740
