Lets's calculate LCM of 137,1966
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 269342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/269342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9168/137,2138/1966 is 2/269342
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 137,1966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(137,1966) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(137,1966) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(137,1966) = ( 137 × 1966 ) / 1
LCM(137,1966) = 269342 / 1
LCM(137,1966) = 269342
