We found the factors 753,1173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 753,1173 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 847,9159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7757673
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7757673
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 753/847,1173/9159 is 3/7757673
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 847,9159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,9159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,9159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(847,9159) = ( 847 × 9159 ) / 1
LCM(847,9159) = 7757673 / 1
LCM(847,9159) = 7757673
