Lets's calculate LCM of 867,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 155193
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/155193
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8607/867,3215/179 is 1/155193
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 867,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(867,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(867,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(867,179) = ( 867 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(867,179) = 155193 / 1
LCM(867,179) = 155193
