Lets's calculate LCM of 661,170
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 112370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5287/661,8766/170 is 1/112370
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 661,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,170) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,170) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,170) = ( 661 × 170 ) / 1
LCM(661,170) = 112370 / 1
LCM(661,170) = 112370
