So the greatest common factor 729,528 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 527,431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 227137
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/227137
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 729/527,528/431 is 3/227137
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 527,431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(527,431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(527,431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(527,431) = ( 527 × 431 ) / 1
LCM(527,431) = 227137 / 1
LCM(527,431) = 227137
