Lets's calculate LCM of 660,4453
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2938980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2938980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6172/660,5318/4453 is 2/2938980
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 660,4453 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(660,4453) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(660,4453) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(660,4453) = ( 660 × 4453 ) / 1
LCM(660,4453) = 2938980 / 1
LCM(660,4453) = 2938980
