So the greatest common factor 7173,1818 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 649,603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 391347
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/391347
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7173/649,1818/603 is 9/391347
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 649,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(649,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(649,603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(649,603) = ( 649 × 603 ) / 1
LCM(649,603) = 391347 / 1
LCM(649,603) = 391347
