Lets's calculate LCM of 173,908
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157084
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/157084
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8529/173,9699/908 is 3/157084
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 173,908 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,908) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,908) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,908) = ( 173 × 908 ) / 1
LCM(173,908) = 157084 / 1
LCM(173,908) = 157084
