Lets's calculate LCM of 571,178
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/101638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1826/571,4702/178 is 2/101638
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 571,178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,178) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,178) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,178) = ( 571 × 178 ) / 1
LCM(571,178) = 101638 / 1
LCM(571,178) = 101638
