Lets's calculate LCM of 281,149

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41869

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/41869

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 120/281,5124/149 is 12/41869

Least Common Multiple of 281,149 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 281,149 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 281,149 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(281,149) = 1

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

GCF(281,149) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(281,149) = ( 281 × 149 ) / 1

LCM(281,149) = 41869 / 1

LCM(281,149) = 41869
