So the greatest common factor 761,7231 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 749,448
7 | 749, 448 |
107, 64 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 107 x 64 = 47936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 761/749,7231/448 is 1/47936
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 749,448 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(749,448) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(749,448) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(749,448) = ( 749 × 448 ) / 7
LCM(749,448) = 335552 / 7
LCM(749,448) = 47936
