So the greatest common factor 3172,4084 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 898,9113
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8183474
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/8183474
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3172/898,4084/9113 is 4/8183474
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 898,9113 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(898,9113) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(898,9113) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(898,9113) = ( 898 × 9113 ) / 1
LCM(898,9113) = 8183474 / 1
LCM(898,9113) = 8183474
