So the greatest common factor 8700,1475 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 355,1722
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 611310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/611310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8700/355,1475/1722 is 25/611310
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 355,1722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(355,1722) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(355,1722) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(355,1722) = ( 355 × 1722 ) / 1
LCM(355,1722) = 611310 / 1
LCM(355,1722) = 611310
