Lets's calculate LCM of 144,815
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 117360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/117360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7686/144,3302/815 is 2/117360
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 144,815 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,815) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,815) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(144,815) = ( 144 × 815 ) / 1
LCM(144,815) = 117360 / 1
LCM(144,815) = 117360
