So the greatest common factor 701,374 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 716,358
2 | 716, 358 |
179 | 358, 179 |
2, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 179 x 2 x 1 = 716
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/716
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 701/716,374/358 is 1/716
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 716,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,358) = 358
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,358) x common factors =358 x 1 = 358
LCM(716,358) = ( 716 × 358 ) / 358
LCM(716,358) = 256328 / 358
LCM(716,358) = 716
