:1,2,5,10,73,146,365,730
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 212,730 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 212,730 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 909,712
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 647208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/647208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 212/909,730/712 is 2/647208
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 909,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(909,712) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(909,712) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(909,712) = ( 909 × 712 ) / 1
LCM(909,712) = 647208 / 1
LCM(909,712) = 647208
