Lets's calculate LCM of 47,131

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6157

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/6157

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 290/47,240/131 is 10/6157

Least Common Multiple of 47,131 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 47,131 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 47,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(47,131) = 1

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

GCF(47,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(47,131) = ( 47 × 131 ) / 1

LCM(47,131) = 6157 / 1

LCM(47,131) = 6157
