So the greatest common factor 2394,5120 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 471,169
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 79599
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/79599
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2394/471,5120/169 is 2/79599
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 471,169 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,169) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,169) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(471,169) = ( 471 × 169 ) / 1
LCM(471,169) = 79599 / 1
LCM(471,169) = 79599
