So the greatest common factor 5376,2872 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 770,2599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2001230
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/2001230
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5376/770,2872/2599 is 8/2001230
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 770,2599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(770,2599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(770,2599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(770,2599) = ( 770 × 2599 ) / 1
LCM(770,2599) = 2001230 / 1
LCM(770,2599) = 2001230
