Lets's calculate LCM of 131,314

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41134

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/41134

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/131,177/314 is 3/41134

Least Common Multiple of 131,314 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 131,314 with GCF Formula

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 131,314 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(131,314) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(131,314) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(131,314) = ( 131 × 314 ) / 1

LCM(131,314) = 41134 / 1

LCM(131,314) = 41134
