I was reading a text book and came across the following approach to find the LCM and HCF of rational numbers/fractions:
- LCM of fractions = LCM of numerators/HCF of denominators
- HCF of fractions = HCF of numerators/LCM of denominators
Can someone please help me understand why the above formula holds true or how the above is logically deduced?
Thanks in advance!
