:1,2,11,22,79,158,869,1738
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2399,1738 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2399,1738 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 995,1304
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1297480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1297480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2399/995,1738/1304 is 1/1297480
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 995,1304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(995,1304) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(995,1304) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(995,1304) = ( 995 × 1304 ) / 1
LCM(995,1304) = 1297480 / 1
LCM(995,1304) = 1297480
