Lets's calculate LCM of 679,5826
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3955854
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3955854
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2740/679,1522/5826 is 2/3955854
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 679,5826 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(679,5826) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(679,5826) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(679,5826) = ( 679 × 5826 ) / 1
LCM(679,5826) = 3955854 / 1
LCM(679,5826) = 3955854
