So the greatest common factor 5358,2343 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 170,4501
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 765170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/765170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5358/170,2343/4501 is 3/765170
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 170,4501 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(170,4501) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(170,4501) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(170,4501) = ( 170 × 4501 ) / 1
LCM(170,4501) = 765170 / 1
LCM(170,4501) = 765170
