We found the factors 530,2680 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 530,2680 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 297,898
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 266706
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/266706
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 530/297,2680/898 is 10/266706
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 297,898 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(297,898) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(297,898) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(297,898) = ( 297 × 898 ) / 1
LCM(297,898) = 266706 / 1
LCM(297,898) = 266706
