Lets's calculate LCM of 136,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 92344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/92344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5492/136,7386/679 is 2/92344
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 136,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(136,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(136,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(136,679) = ( 136 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(136,679) = 92344 / 1
LCM(136,679) = 92344
