So the greatest common factor 2994,2120 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 769,7419
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5705211
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5705211
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2994/769,2120/7419 is 2/5705211
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 769,7419 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(769,7419) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(769,7419) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(769,7419) = ( 769 × 7419 ) / 1
LCM(769,7419) = 5705211 / 1
LCM(769,7419) = 5705211
