Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 558,757 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 558,757 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 734,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 360394
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/360394
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 558/734,757/491 is 1/360394
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 734,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(734,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(734,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(734,491) = ( 734 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(734,491) = 360394 / 1
LCM(734,491) = 360394
