Lets's calculate LCM of 173,9023
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1560979
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/1560979
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8875/173,8525/9023 is 25/1560979
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 173,9023 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,9023) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,9023) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,9023) = ( 173 × 9023 ) / 1
LCM(173,9023) = 1560979 / 1
LCM(173,9023) = 1560979
