Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7321,8579 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7321,8579 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 821,744
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 610824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/610824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7321/821,8579/744 is 1/610824
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 821,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(821,744) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(821,744) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(821,744) = ( 821 × 744 ) / 1
LCM(821,744) = 610824 / 1
LCM(821,744) = 610824
