Lets's calculate LCM of 137,972

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133164

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/133164

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 22/137,88/972 is 22/133164

Least Common Multiple of 137,972 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 137,972 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 137,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(137,972) = 1

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

GCF(137,972) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(137,972) = ( 137 × 972 ) / 1

LCM(137,972) = 133164 / 1

LCM(137,972) = 133164
