Lets's calculate LCM of 17,120

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2040

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/2040

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 456/17,180/120 is 12/2040

Least Common Multiple of 17,120 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 17,120 with GCF Formula

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 17,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(17,120) = 1

common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1

GCF(17,120) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(17,120) = ( 17 × 120 ) / 1

LCM(17,120) = 2040 / 1

LCM(17,120) = 2040
