So the greatest common factor 4952,7626 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11418
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/11418
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4952/66,7626/173 is 2/11418
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 66,173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,173) = ( 66 × 173 ) / 1
LCM(66,173) = 11418 / 1
LCM(66,173) = 11418
