:1,3,9,79,237,711
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 339,711 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 339,711 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 936,782
2 | 936, 782 |
468, 391 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 468 x 391 = 365976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/365976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 339/936,711/782 is 3/365976
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 936,782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,782) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,782) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(936,782) = ( 936 × 782 ) / 2
LCM(936,782) = 731952 / 2
LCM(936,782) = 365976
