Lets's calculate LCM of 134,843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 112962
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112962
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 735/134,968/843 is 1/112962
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 134,843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(134,843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(134,843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(134,843) = ( 134 × 843 ) / 1
LCM(134,843) = 112962 / 1
LCM(134,843) = 112962
