So the greatest common factor 2616,1520 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 669,8669
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5799561
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/5799561
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2616/669,1520/8669 is 8/5799561
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 669,8669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(669,8669) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(669,8669) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(669,8669) = ( 669 × 8669 ) / 1
LCM(669,8669) = 5799561 / 1
LCM(669,8669) = 5799561
