Lets's calculate LCM of 173,7546
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1305458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 68/1305458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9588/173,9724/7546 is 68/1305458
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 173,7546 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,7546) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,7546) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,7546) = ( 173 × 7546 ) / 1
LCM(173,7546) = 1305458 / 1
LCM(173,7546) = 1305458
