Lets's calculate LCM of 172,7127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1225844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1225844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5458/172,9714/7127 is 2/1225844
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 172,7127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(172,7127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(172,7127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(172,7127) = ( 172 × 7127 ) / 1
LCM(172,7127) = 1225844 / 1
LCM(172,7127) = 1225844
