Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 736,115 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 736,115 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 614,976
2 | 614, 976 |
307, 488 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 307 x 488 = 299632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/299632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 736/614,115/976 is 23/299632
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 614,976 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(614,976) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(614,976) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(614,976) = ( 614 × 976 ) / 2
LCM(614,976) = 599264 / 2
LCM(614,976) = 299632
