So the greatest common factor 2676,2378 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,2520
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1766520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1766520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2676/701,2378/2520 is 2/1766520
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 701,2520 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,2520) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,2520) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,2520) = ( 701 × 2520 ) / 1
LCM(701,2520) = 1766520 / 1
LCM(701,2520) = 1766520
