So the greatest common factor 2736,6538 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 771,100
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 77100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/77100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2736/771,6538/100 is 2/77100
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 771,100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(771,100) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(771,100) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(771,100) = ( 771 × 100 ) / 1
LCM(771,100) = 77100 / 1
LCM(771,100) = 77100
