So the greatest common factor 730,168 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,5127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 328128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/328128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 730/64,168/5127 is 2/328128
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 64,5127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,5127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,5127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(64,5127) = ( 64 × 5127 ) / 1
LCM(64,5127) = 328128 / 1
LCM(64,5127) = 328128
