Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 320,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 320,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 755,539
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 406945
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/406945
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 320/755,731/539 is 1/406945
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 755,539 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(755,539) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(755,539) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(755,539) = ( 755 × 539 ) / 1
LCM(755,539) = 406945 / 1
LCM(755,539) = 406945
