So the greatest common factor 529,176 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 172,191
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32852
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32852
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 529/172,176/191 is 1/32852
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 172,191 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(172,191) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(172,191) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(172,191) = ( 172 × 191 ) / 1
LCM(172,191) = 32852 / 1
LCM(172,191) = 32852
