Lets's calculate LCM of 572,853
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 487916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/487916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 166/572,1470/853 is 2/487916
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 572,853 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,853) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,853) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(572,853) = ( 572 × 853 ) / 1
LCM(572,853) = 487916 / 1
LCM(572,853) = 487916
