Lets's calculate LCM of 170,8121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1380570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/1380570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2176/170,7259/8121 is 17/1380570
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 170,8121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,8121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,8121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(170,8121) = ( 170 × 8121 ) / 1
LCM(170,8121) = 1380570 / 1
LCM(170,8121) = 1380570
