Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 260,769 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 260,769 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 428,724
2 | 428, 724 |
2 | 214, 362 |
107, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 107 x 181 = 77468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/77468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 260/428,769/724 is 1/77468
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 428,724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(428,724) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(428,724) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(428,724) = ( 428 × 724 ) / 4
LCM(428,724) = 309872 / 4
LCM(428,724) = 77468
