:1,11,67,737
Now, list down the factors of 6036
:1,2,3,4,6,12,503,1006,1509,2012,3018,6036
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 737,6036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 737,6036 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,773
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 353261
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/353261
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 737/457,6036/773 is 1/353261
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 457,773 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,773) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,773) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,773) = ( 457 × 773 ) / 1
LCM(457,773) = 353261 / 1
LCM(457,773) = 353261
