Lets's calculate LCM of 171,7189
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1229319
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1229319
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9606/171,5964/7189 is 6/1229319
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 171,7189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,7189) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,7189) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,7189) = ( 171 × 7189 ) / 1
LCM(171,7189) = 1229319 / 1
LCM(171,7189) = 1229319
