Lets's calculate LCM of 769,1529
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1175801
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1175801
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5002/769,5372/1529 is 2/1175801
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 769,1529 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(769,1529) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(769,1529) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(769,1529) = ( 769 × 1529 ) / 1
LCM(769,1529) = 1175801 / 1
LCM(769,1529) = 1175801
