Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 737,521 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 737,521 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 304,619
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188176
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/188176
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 737/304,521/619 is 1/188176
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 304,619 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,619) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,619) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(304,619) = ( 304 × 619 ) / 1
LCM(304,619) = 188176 / 1
LCM(304,619) = 188176
