Lets's calculate LCM of 151,126

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19026

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19026

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/151,287/126 is 1/19026

Least Common Multiple of 151,126 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 151,126 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 151,126 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(151,126) = 1

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

GCF(151,126) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(151,126) = ( 151 × 126 ) / 1

LCM(151,126) = 19026 / 1

LCM(151,126) = 19026
