Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 347,179 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 347,179 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 759,742
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 563178
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/563178
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 347/759,179/742 is 1/563178
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 759,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(759,742) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(759,742) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(759,742) = ( 759 × 742 ) / 1
LCM(759,742) = 563178 / 1
LCM(759,742) = 563178
