We found the factors 4500,3000 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4500,3000 is 1500.
Lets's calculate LCM of 174,7913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1376862
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1500/1376862
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4500/174,3000/7913 is 1500/1376862
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 174,7913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(174,7913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(174,7913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(174,7913) = ( 174 × 7913 ) / 1
LCM(174,7913) = 1376862 / 1
LCM(174,7913) = 1376862
