Lets's calculate LCM of 173,3280
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 567440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/567440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4282/173,2378/3280 is 2/567440
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 173,3280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,3280) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,3280) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,3280) = ( 173 × 3280 ) / 1
LCM(173,3280) = 567440 / 1
LCM(173,3280) = 567440
