Lets's calculate LCM of 179,9142
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1636418
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1636418
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6700/179,6756/9142 is 4/1636418
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 179,9142 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(179,9142) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(179,9142) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(179,9142) = ( 179 × 9142 ) / 1
LCM(179,9142) = 1636418 / 1
LCM(179,9142) = 1636418
