Lets's calculate LCM of 629,1260
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 792540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/792540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2476/629,3558/1260 is 2/792540
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 629,1260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(629,1260) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(629,1260) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(629,1260) = ( 629 × 1260 ) / 1
LCM(629,1260) = 792540 / 1
LCM(629,1260) = 792540
