So the greatest common factor 650,168 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 280,127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 35560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/35560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 650/280,168/127 is 2/35560
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 280,127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(280,127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(280,127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(280,127) = ( 280 × 127 ) / 1
LCM(280,127) = 35560 / 1
LCM(280,127) = 35560
