Lets's calculate LCM of 145,993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 143985
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/143985
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8128/145,4362/993 is 2/143985
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 145,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(145,993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(145,993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(145,993) = ( 145 × 993 ) / 1
LCM(145,993) = 143985 / 1
LCM(145,993) = 143985
