Lets's calculate LCM of 144,1783
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 256752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 83/256752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7885/144,7138/1783 is 83/256752
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 144,1783 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,1783) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,1783) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(144,1783) = ( 144 × 1783 ) / 1
LCM(144,1783) = 256752 / 1
LCM(144,1783) = 256752
