Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 576,160 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 576,160 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 741,799
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 592059
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/592059
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 576/741,160/799 is 32/592059
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 741,799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(741,799) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(741,799) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(741,799) = ( 741 × 799 ) / 1
LCM(741,799) = 592059 / 1
LCM(741,799) = 592059
