So the greatest common factor 3060,1640 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,3137
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2669587
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/2669587
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3060/851,1640/3137 is 20/2669587
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 851,3137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,3137) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,3137) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,3137) = ( 851 × 3137 ) / 1
LCM(851,3137) = 2669587 / 1
LCM(851,3137) = 2669587
