Lets's calculate LCM of 379,9891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3748689
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/3748689
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5340/379,1580/9891 is 20/3748689
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 379,9891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(379,9891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(379,9891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(379,9891) = ( 379 × 9891 ) / 1
LCM(379,9891) = 3748689 / 1
LCM(379,9891) = 3748689
