So the greatest common factor 925,320 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 918,173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/158814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 925/918,320/173 is 5/158814
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 918,173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(918,173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(918,173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(918,173) = ( 918 × 173 ) / 1
LCM(918,173) = 158814 / 1
LCM(918,173) = 158814
