Lets's calculate LCM of 457,169
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 77233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/77233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4524/457,8894/169 is 2/77233
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 457,169 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,169) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,169) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,169) = ( 457 × 169 ) / 1
LCM(457,169) = 77233 / 1
LCM(457,169) = 77233
