Lets's calculate LCM of 161,157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 25277
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/25277
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/161,6045/157 is 31/25277
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 161,157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(161,157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(161,157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(161,157) = ( 161 × 157 ) / 1
LCM(161,157) = 25277 / 1
LCM(161,157) = 25277
