Lets's calculate LCM of 15,173

Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2595

Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2595

Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5897/15,2997/173 is 1/2595

Least Common Multiple of 15,173 with GCF Formula

Least Common Multiple of 15,173 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 15,173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(15,173) = 1

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

GCF(15,173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1

LCM(15,173) = ( 15 × 173 ) / 1

LCM(15,173) = 2595 / 1

LCM(15,173) = 2595
