Lets's calculate LCM of 173,4542
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 785766
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/785766
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4792/173,1455/4542 is 1/785766
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 173,4542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,4542) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,4542) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,4542) = ( 173 × 4542 ) / 1
LCM(173,4542) = 785766 / 1
LCM(173,4542) = 785766
