Lets's calculate LCM of 551,173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 95323
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/95323
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4357/551,3325/173 is 1/95323
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 551,173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,173) = ( 551 × 173 ) / 1
LCM(551,173) = 95323 / 1
LCM(551,173) = 95323
