Lets's calculate LCM of 137,268
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/36716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5499/137,5434/268 is 13/36716
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 137,268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(137,268) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(137,268) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(137,268) = ( 137 × 268 ) / 1
LCM(137,268) = 36716 / 1
LCM(137,268) = 36716
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
