So the greatest common factor 7049,5874 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 148,117
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7049/148,5874/117 is 1/17316
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 148,117 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(148,117) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(148,117) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(148,117) = ( 148 × 117 ) / 1
LCM(148,117) = 17316 / 1
LCM(148,117) = 17316
