Lets's calculate LCM of 17,305
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5185
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5185
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7168/17,6298/305 is 2/5185
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 17,305 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,305) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,305) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,305) = ( 17 × 305 ) / 1
LCM(17,305) = 5185 / 1
LCM(17,305) = 5185
