Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9356/562,5218/170 is 2/47770
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 562,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(562,170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(562,170) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(562,170) = ( 562 × 170 ) / 2
LCM(562,170) = 95540 / 2
LCM(562,170) = 47770
