Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1746,4218 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1746,4218 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 722183
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/722183
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1746/791,4218/913 is 6/722183
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 791,913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,913) = ( 791 × 913 ) / 1
LCM(791,913) = 722183 / 1
LCM(791,913) = 722183
