So the greatest common factor 1672,1676 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 697,2134
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1487398
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1487398
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1672/697,1676/2134 is 4/1487398
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 697,2134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(697,2134) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(697,2134) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(697,2134) = ( 697 × 2134 ) / 1
LCM(697,2134) = 1487398 / 1
LCM(697,2134) = 1487398
