So the greatest common factor 3480,9624 is 24.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,780
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/56940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3480/73,9624/780 is 24/56940
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 73,780 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,780) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,780) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,780) = ( 73 × 780 ) / 1
LCM(73,780) = 56940 / 1
LCM(73,780) = 56940
