Lets's calculate LCM of 168,443
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 902/168,357/443 is 1/74424
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 168,443 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,443) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,443) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(168,443) = ( 168 × 443 ) / 1
LCM(168,443) = 74424 / 1
LCM(168,443) = 74424
