So the greatest common factor 939,175 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 346,497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 171962
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/171962
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 939/346,175/497 is 1/171962
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 346,497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(346,497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(346,497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(346,497) = ( 346 × 497 ) / 1
LCM(346,497) = 171962 / 1
LCM(346,497) = 171962
