:1,727
Now, list down the factors of 518
:1,2,7,14,37,74,259,518
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 727,518 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 727,518 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 731,513
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 375003
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/375003
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 727/731,518/513 is 1/375003
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 731,513 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(731,513) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(731,513) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(731,513) = ( 731 × 513 ) / 1
LCM(731,513) = 375003 / 1
LCM(731,513) = 375003
