Lets's calculate LCM of 178,5375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 956750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/956750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6308/178,4258/5375 is 2/956750
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 178,5375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(178,5375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(178,5375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(178,5375) = ( 178 × 5375 ) / 1
LCM(178,5375) = 956750 / 1
LCM(178,5375) = 956750
