:1,547
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 651,547 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 651,547 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 721,742
7 | 721, 742 |
103, 106 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 103 x 106 = 76426
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/76426
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 651/721,547/742 is 1/76426
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 721,742 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,742) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,742) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(721,742) = ( 721 × 742 ) / 7
LCM(721,742) = 534982 / 7
LCM(721,742) = 76426
