Lets's calculate LCM of 317,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 165157
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/165157
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6674/317,8592/521 is 2/165157
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 317,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(317,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(317,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(317,521) = ( 317 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(317,521) = 165157 / 1
LCM(317,521) = 165157
