So the greatest common factor 2125,5370 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,398
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33034
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/33034
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2125/83,5370/398 is 5/33034
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 83,398 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,398) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,398) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,398) = ( 83 × 398 ) / 1
LCM(83,398) = 33034 / 1
LCM(83,398) = 33034
