:1,197
Now, list down the factors of 104
:1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 197,104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 197,104 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 723,668
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 482964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/482964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 197/723,104/668 is 1/482964
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 723,668 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(723,668) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(723,668) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(723,668) = ( 723 × 668 ) / 1
LCM(723,668) = 482964 / 1
LCM(723,668) = 482964
