Lets's calculate LCM of 169,6898
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1165762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1165762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5017/169,8982/6898 is 1/1165762
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 169,6898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(169,6898) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(169,6898) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(169,6898) = ( 169 × 6898 ) / 1
LCM(169,6898) = 1165762 / 1
LCM(169,6898) = 1165762
