Lets's calculate LCM of 369,9173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3384837
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3384837
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8586/369,6578/9173 is 2/3384837
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 369,9173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(369,9173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(369,9173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(369,9173) = ( 369 × 9173 ) / 1
LCM(369,9173) = 3384837 / 1
LCM(369,9173) = 3384837
