Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7441,4517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7441,4517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,838
| 2 | 718, 838 |
| 359, 419 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 359 x 419 = 300842
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/300842
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7441/718,4517/838 is 1/300842
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 718,838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,838) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,838) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(718,838) = ( 718 × 838 ) / 2
LCM(718,838) = 601684 / 2
LCM(718,838) = 300842
