Lets's calculate LCM of 179,6422
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1149538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1149538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2252/179,8523/6422 is 1/1149538
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 179,6422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(179,6422) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(179,6422) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(179,6422) = ( 179 × 6422 ) / 1
LCM(179,6422) = 1149538 / 1
LCM(179,6422) = 1149538
