:1,2,4,307,614,1228
Now, list down the factors of 3061
:1,3061
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1228,3061 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1228,3061 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 743,472
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 350696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/350696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1228/743,3061/472 is 1/350696
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 743,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(743,472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(743,472) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(743,472) = ( 743 × 472 ) / 1
LCM(743,472) = 350696 / 1
LCM(743,472) = 350696
