Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5357,2271 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5357,2271 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 744,769
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 572136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/572136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5357/744,2271/769 is 1/572136
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 744,769 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(744,769) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(744,769) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(744,769) = ( 744 × 769 ) / 1
LCM(744,769) = 572136 / 1
LCM(744,769) = 572136
