Lets's calculate LCM of 140,8473
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1186220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1186220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 674/140,1708/8473 is 2/1186220
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 140,8473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(140,8473) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(140,8473) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(140,8473) = ( 140 × 8473 ) / 1
LCM(140,8473) = 1186220 / 1
LCM(140,8473) = 1186220
