Lets's calculate LCM of 176,161
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 39/28336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3198/176,6747/161 is 39/28336
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 176,161 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(176,161) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(176,161) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(176,161) = ( 176 × 161 ) / 1
LCM(176,161) = 28336 / 1
LCM(176,161) = 28336
