So the greatest common factor 8595,9370 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/156372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8595/332,9370/471 is 5/156372
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 332,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,471) = ( 332 × 471 ) / 1
LCM(332,471) = 156372 / 1
LCM(332,471) = 156372
