Lets's calculate LCM of 873,136
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 118728
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/118728
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8224/873,2370/136 is 2/118728
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 873,136 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,136) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,136) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,136) = ( 873 × 136 ) / 1
LCM(873,136) = 118728 / 1
LCM(873,136) = 118728
