So the greatest common factor 7273,2442 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 143,667
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 95381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/95381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7273/143,2442/667 is 1/95381
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 143,667 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(143,667) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(143,667) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(143,667) = ( 143 × 667 ) / 1
LCM(143,667) = 95381 / 1
LCM(143,667) = 95381
