Now, list down the factors of 637
:1,7,13,49,91,637
Now, list down the factors of 634
:1,2,317,634
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 637,634 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 637,634 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 637/40,634/717 is 1/28680
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 40,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,717) = ( 40 × 717 ) / 1
LCM(40,717) = 28680 / 1
LCM(40,717) = 28680
