Lets's calculate LCM of 183,8522
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1559526
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/1559526
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3723/183,6902/8522 is 17/1559526
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 183,8522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(183,8522) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(183,8522) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(183,8522) = ( 183 × 8522 ) / 1
LCM(183,8522) = 1559526 / 1
LCM(183,8522) = 1559526
