Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 746,421 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 746,421 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 525,319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 167475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/167475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 746/525,421/319 is 1/167475
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 525,319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(525,319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(525,319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(525,319) = ( 525 × 319 ) / 1
LCM(525,319) = 167475 / 1
LCM(525,319) = 167475
