Lets's calculate LCM of 146,277
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 40442
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/40442
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/146,936/277 is 13/40442
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 146,277 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,277) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,277) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(146,277) = ( 146 × 277 ) / 1
LCM(146,277) = 40442 / 1
LCM(146,277) = 40442
