Lets's calculate LCM of 191,203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 38773
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/38773
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5352/191,5894/203 is 2/38773
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 191,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(191,203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(191,203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(191,203) = ( 191 × 203 ) / 1
LCM(191,203) = 38773 / 1
LCM(191,203) = 38773
