So the greatest common factor 2540,1281 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 354,1309
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 463386
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/463386
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2540/354,1281/1309 is 1/463386
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 354,1309 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,1309) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,1309) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(354,1309) = ( 354 × 1309 ) / 1
LCM(354,1309) = 463386 / 1
LCM(354,1309) = 463386
