So the greatest common factor 728,663 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,308
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 89628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/89628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 728/291,663/308 is 13/89628
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 291,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,308) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,308) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(291,308) = ( 291 × 308 ) / 1
LCM(291,308) = 89628 / 1
LCM(291,308) = 89628
