So the greatest common factor 730,238 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 769,984
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 756696
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/756696
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 730/769,238/984 is 2/756696
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 769,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(769,984) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(769,984) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(769,984) = ( 769 × 984 ) / 1
LCM(769,984) = 756696 / 1
LCM(769,984) = 756696
